    yeah that's what you say now until one day you're sitting in class and you hear that one of your closest friends has been shipped off to fight. you don't know whether or not they might come back and even graduate. maybe then you'll think twice about having a war. once it starts affecting the people you care about.

    hell no.


    Bombing the #### out of Iraq will not bring world peace. It increases the terror risk here. Bush is doing it for one reason: oil

    sorry mate...but that is just foul play.

    Just because there is one person that is somewhat twisted...doesn't make everyone else the same. It's not their fault that their country is being controlled by a dictator.

    Anyway...I don't think we should go to war, for many reasons.

    What's the point? We don't have the evidence we need yet.

    Many people will be killed...on both sides (In fact I'm listening to the news right now and it turns out that 8 british soldiers have just been killed in a helicopter crash)

    and the third reason is just that...well I'm not dying until I've done what I want to do...even if it means a bloody neuclear warhead hanging over my head for my whole life...

    (sorry about the language but I think it's easy to tell that I'm quite annoyed ;) )

    Another thing that's annoying me too right now...is the things many people are saying about France. Ok so Jaques is a big-nosed tosser...but he is doing what he thinks is right...if that means not going to war, so be it. America may of helped them out in WWII, but that doesn't mean France has to jump into this war and possibly do something they'll regret, they'll help out when the time is right...

    saddam is a threat to his own people and to US. it's about time we went to war with this guy. i have a friend over there and i still support the war. i cannot stand these peace protestors who ironically cause more of a disturbance than peace. they fight, block traffic, march, and are just really annoying. of course, both sides suffer in war, and you know what? people fighting over there are there all because of themselves. NOBODY ASKED THEM TO SIGN UP FOR THE MILITARY!! they signed the paper, they trained for months, they knew the risk of going to war, so don't talk sh!t about having friends going over because i support my friend. if not, why bother having a military in the first place.

    I agree 100% on war now.

    I used to be very anti-war, you can ask all my friends i HATED it.

    But after I learned about how saddam leaves his people to starve when he has 48 mansions of his own and kills millions of innocent people everyday, I think this b*stard deserves to be sent straight to hell. By not wanting war, you guys are supporting the mistreatment of many iraqi citizens.

    And for the last damn time. This is NOT about Oil. This is about Saddam Hussein not getting rid of his weapons when the UN asked him too and being a total pri*k.

    So we are going without UN approval. Not the first time we've done it.

    Saddam needs to be dead, and his regime brought down NOW. Not later, NOW. If you pay attention Bin Laden seems to be connected more to Iraq then most think, this is also a step in disposing of Bin Laden as well.

    Plus to all you anti Bush people,Bush is not an a**hole alright? He is ATTACKING terrorism by force. He wants a brighter tommorrow for the kids of the future and today.

    you're not going to completely agree with me on this, but here goes.

    Invading a country, no matter how powerful you are, is completely wrong. If a leader is starving his people and killing them that way, why should the US army go in there and kill more innocent civilians? It's almost like a contradiction of what the US government is against, which is Terrorism. How could invading a country and eventually killing thousands of civilians over their leader and his 2 sons not be called Terrorism? I know the US is a victim of Terrorism, but that doesn't mean that what the Army and Government is doing is not Terrorism.

    Sure, he's a threat to international security, but he was disarming no matter how slow he was going. What's the sense of getting rid of all your weapons when you know there will be a war no matter what?

    Also, the US Army may be going in there for one thing, which is to change the Iraqi regime, but there is a second thing which is masked by the overthrow. I believe they want oil.

    Dude why the hell would Bush be doing it for the sake of oil? Remember this country to the north of the USA called Canada, yah there is alot of oil there that the USA gets. More than enough that he wouldn't ahve to worry about going into Iraq to get some.

    Bush is totally doing the right thing. I mean what is he supposed to do when another country poses a threat to him. Sit back like they did when they knew Bin Laden was causeing trouble and let more terrorist attacks occur in the states? No he has to take him out and so that possibly some peace can be found in the world. Plus terrorists are pretty stupid by themselves it takes leaders to get them organized and convinced that terrorist action is the right thing, so if there is no Saddam or Osama left anymore they become pretty stupid and weak and taht is all Bush is doing.

    you're wrong with your oil facts. the majority of our oil comes from the middle east and if we lose that, trust me, we're screwed...maybe not immediately, but eventually. this is one hell of a touchy subject and i too started out as somewhat anti-war, and now i'm for it.

    Thats the thing your right they do get alot of Oil in the middle east. But if they ever lost that oil supply they could easily get it from Canada, but nobody ever thinks of this, because they wouls like to use the oil thing as a justufication for Bush going to war. I wouuld know all about Canada's oile and what they do with it cause I workl on the oil rigs up here in Canada and know quite a bit about the business.
