Get Out of Iraq Now!

Get Out of Iraq Now!

U.S. Government look at history and get the hell out of Iraq. We really need to re-evaluate our purpose for being there. What do we seek to accomplish? Are we trying to spread democracy? Are we protecting ourselves and our future? Are we afraid to admit this may have been a personal vendetta from the past administration? Is it for the oil? Whatever the reason it doesn’t equal the value of one American life.

We as American know our way of life to be the best in the world. We like our way of life so much and we will make you take it. The democracy we love may not be for other cultures, with values based on religion our freedoms contradict the rules their religion. What may seem unfair to us is to them a perfectly fine way of life, while working in Saudi Arabia I was able to experience the culture first hand. Sometimes because something is different doesn’t make it wrong.

Freedom is a big word, what freedom are the people of Iraq hoping to gain? There are protest on the news all the time against the U.S. being in Iraq, if we are freeing them why are they protesting? Who are these people that protest, and if they want to be free why don’t they pick up a gun and fight for that freedom? I don’t think it’s right for Americans to die when there are able bodied men protesting, marching in parades, and sitting in street cafes sipping tea. Iraq was never a real threat against the U.S. military, our technology is so far ahead of what they have it could never be a threat to us. The weapons of mass destruction never existed, maybe President Bush had unfinished business with Saddam, there is at least one other person in the world that agree with me Bush and Saddam: Unfinished Business. Saddam is dead we all saw it on the internet let’s move on.

If we are there for oil, take the damn oil! Whatever happened to war the old fashion way? Even the card game, “I Declare War” if your flip card is higher you take the other person cards, let get back to that concept. If you go to war with another country you take their natural resources, women whatever. A Saudi once told me that the reason the women started wearing the covering was, when they were at war with other tribes the raiders could not distinguish the old woman from the young maiden we they kidnapped them. I don’t know how mush truth is in that statement hey it works for me. So if it’s about oil let’s get if not then let’s move on, because right now we have high gas prices and we have spent billions of our dollars for this war and they have a surplus of billions. How about we free ourselves and get out of Iraq!
