Why????
It cost so many lives not just from both sides but "collateral damage" people who are killed for no given reason which gives a various definition of either mass murder or murder given for no reason except for a cause.
Why? When I served in a military for a short amount of time I could not understand not even in the name of nationalism or protection. It almost seems like protection means nothing these days except oil and world-wide trade.
I have to ask, why in the U.S. are people so enthusiastiastic in going to war. Do you think the message is unclear or not clear enough? Don't get me wrong, I respect and feel for soldiers but why do they need to serve in order to show their honor? This war thus far has been nothing but confusing and destructive. I have seen nothing good come out of any war this generation.
I'm sorry if you people have kids and anyone serving in war. I just have to vent. I can't contemplate. My brother and other some family members are still affected by war.
Some wars have more cause to fight for or against than others. The current war, which Obama is continuing, may be less necessary than WWII, but it was still important to get rid of Hussein due to his actions against his own people and to the people of Kuwait. Although he's been eliminated, it has proved necessary to stay in Iraq because the various Islamic sects in Iraq wish to exterminate each other.
