Its nothing against any individual, and I am not judging you at all. Its just a irrational dislike off americans, nothing to change about it. You know, sometimes people really are irrational human beings. Its probably mostly my image off america that I got from movies, which is why its irrational, any logical conclusion would be that I have to little data to make any sort off conclusion.
Iraq- No.
Afghanistan- Might of, if it had been properly staffed, funded, and handled from the begining. As it is now, cluster-fecked to the point where Taliban are returning in droves, No.

When the rumblings began about an invasion of Iraq, I couldn’t believe they were serious. I wondered how a guy in middle America with no experience in governmental or foreign affairs (me) could clearly see that it was wrong on so many levels. I thought surely they know something I don’t. I was proven right about my initial thoughts and wrong on the whole Washingtonians knowing more than I do thing.
Well, this thread has nothing to do with the love of America, or anything you are mentioning. Start another thread if you like.
Stop voting them in then!
I don’t disagree w/ your sentiment, but on the other hand you might want to check your own back yard first. :rolleyes:
Hey most of us on this board didn’t. You know that.
- Afghanistan - yes. Iraq - hell no. Now, if they would have gone into Saudi Arabia, where most of the 9/11 hijackers were actually from, instead of trying to implicate Iraq in 9/11 as an excuse to invade, yeah I probably would have gone along with it.

Yeah. Of the voting public, 51 % voted for him. 49 % didn’t. We’re trying, man.
War, no. For a competently carried out peacekeeping effort, however, I would give several limbs. Preferably not my own.

You’re British right? Are there, by chance, any British troops participating in the war in Iraq?

Less of the kneejerk tu quoque lads. I was addressing a post about the US government, not the UK one. If it had been about mine, I’d have responded similarly.
Afghanistan yes, Iraq no
