Another politically abused acronym that defines the Iraqi war other than the ‘Liberation of it‘.
First, if a country is going to invade another country and oust the government and disrupt it’s stability you need to have solid evidence and be able to “PRODUCE†that evidence that lead you to that determination expeditiously. All the American public heard was how much ‘Intel’ we had to justify this war and now we aren’t producing the evidence. This is the main argument “Iraq is the size of Californiaâ€, it was “moved elsewhere†hogwash, if the intelligence was there in the first place then it should be easy to locate, we have satellites that can take a picture of you walking out of Wal-Mart. I don’t what to hear excuses I want some facts. I backed this war; now show me we weren’t wrong, and no excuses please. If you want to use the same old argument that we went in to ‘Liberate’ Iraq, I don’t buy it, there are lot‘s of countries out there that have been ignored by us and the UN when civilians where getting brutally slaughtered. The United States backed Sadamm through his most brutal years; we gave him the chemicals to enable him to slaughter Iranians and Kurds, to see pictures of that will make your stomach turn and now the propaganda machine is using that against him.
Secondly, it seems we’ve become known as the bullies on the block. We go into countries where the level of causalities will not alarm the American Public, we fight the wars that can be easily won; it‘s all starting to appear to be ‘Political‘ now. China is our biggest threat, not some two-bit thug from Iraq. We won’t mess with China or NK in the same way as we did Iraq because we know that would be a bad one, they would be more formidable opponents.
China will be the next nuclear superpower that challenges us, if you recall history you’ll remember that power and dominance don’t last forever, it‘s like fart in the wind in the big picture, one minute you‘re top dog, the next you‘re a whipped puppy. China won’t topple like Russia did; The Chinese are more disciplined, have a stable expanding and strong economy and they are blindly dedicated to the cause. A strong economy is the key to the strength of a nation.
Trust me on this folks, there’s always an up and coming bad ass in the wings that is going too eventually be badder than you. History backs this theory. If we don’t start proving our accusations we are going to loose world support and make enemies of progressive nuclear nations that we really don’t what as an enemy.
I back our military and the US constitution because you know what you’re getting, politics.. well that could be labeled as a detriment to human existence.
If you don't learn from history, you're doomed to repeat it. Excellent quote.
