OUR SOLDIER'S LIVES HAVE BEEN WASTED!




I can’t seem to stay away from IRAQ for too long.

Barack Obama and now John McCain have had to apologize to the general public for saying that the Iraq war has “WASTED” American lives. McCain said that he should have said “SACRIFICED” and not wasted.

If we apply the facts as we know them into a logical train of thought, we can conclude that the invasion of Iraq and subsequent “war” was not justified. Iraq did not pose any imminent danger to the United States or its people. They did not harbor Al Qaeda terrorists or weapons of mass destruction. Basically we did not need to invade Iraq for any reason.

Bush, who now realizes he cannot justify the war, has been heard to repeat that he rid Iraq of a brutal dictator and therefore helped the Iraqi people.

Well that is an empty argument because Fidel Castro is a brutal dictator that has kept his people in poverty and desperation since the 1950s, is only a few miles from Florida and probably has an army of a few thousand troops and BUSH has not seen fit to help the Cubans – so stick that argument up your ass Mr. President.

We can state unequivocally based on facts that over 3,000 American lives have been absolutely WASTED and that is a painful thing to say for anyone. I also have been following the troops that have been terribly wounded to the point where it would have been better if they died in the field; those lives have been WASTED also.

An even harsher statement to make about our dead in Iraq is that THEY DIED FOR NOTHING! I know history may prove us wrong in future years but as far as we are concerned, at this time in our history, they have given their lives for no apparent reason.

Many supporters of the war in Iraq understand this and are calling for some type of victory so our troops would not have died in vain. But alas, there is no possibility of victory in Iraq so the country has to admit that OUR SOLDIERS HAVE DIED IN VAIN – shame on President Bush, shame on us.
