Iraq War criticized
In reference to the way the government is handling the war on Iraq: We should never have been in this so-called war. Eighteen hundred children have no Father because of it. There are 13,000 wounded servicemen with many missing limbs. If half of the $300 billion spent on Iraq was used to go after Bin Laden, he and his terrorists would be eliminated. The United States is afraid to hurt the feelings of the Pakistanis and Afghans. What needs to be done is go in the caves with 100 or more planes equipped with napalm and burn them out. That’s the way the Japanese were taken out in the South Pacific in World War II.
Also, the United States is never going to get out of Iraq because the Iraqis are a bunch of cowards. That was proven in the first Gulf War when Saddam’s whole army surrendered. This war is Bush’s private vendetta. Peace and tranquility will not come as long a there are lunatics killing each other over a terrorist religion.
It seems the United States does not want Bin Laden taken out. Spend more money on eliminating terrorists. Also, where are these terrorists getting all these explosives? They claim they are now coming from Iran. Where were they coming from before? I remember once seeing a field of bombs lying out in the sun totally unguarded. All they had to do was unscrew them and remove the explosive.
If these Iraqis are not cowards, why do they have their heads and faces covered? Many probably don’t agree with me but I am entitled to my opinions. I fail to see where this is a patriotic war. We were never invaded by Iraq and Saddam could have been taken out by a highly paid band of military men or special services. The public has been brainwashed into believing this war was justified, by a bunch of idiots running this country. Iraq will never be free until the people rise up against these terrorists.
