They can vote whoever they want. But, if you want to call it American Friendly go ahead. Beacuse there are millions of American Friendly Iraqis.

The United States purposely slaughtering the Iraqi people in order to get their oil. Ok. Now, under your scenario, we forced our way into Iraq, killed their people, took their oil and gave the insurgents and the rest of the Middle East region a new basis of anti-Americanism. Thousands rise up against us in defiance. That'd look very nice on the world stage. Cowboy diplomacy, is it?

Yes, you are right we went in there and slaughtered Iraqi people. To bad those Iraqi's had guns and bombs and were firing them at our troops and beheading people. Not to mention that most of those people that are fighting aren't from Iraq. And those thousands you mentioned, thats less than 1%. Hmmm... Millions turn out to vote, thousands try ro scare poeple into a fasicst state that they want to be incontrol of.

Getting oil from them is not a bad thing you say? And killing innocent civilians is a much more humane way to do it?? Listen to yourself! Please, please get your head out of the sand. Look at the big picture for a minute. In the end, this will be all about oil. All the other dictators in the world haven't been attacked yet. Why? China, Iran, N. Korea, etc can actually defend themselves. Iraq was this little nation that couldn't fight back even if they wanted to. The CIA already knew that there were no WMD's. That's why we attacked. Don't believe me? Then why is Bush going on and on about trying to resolve the N. Korea situation with actual diplomacy? What about cowboy diplomacy? N. Korea is some shittly little country way up there. We can take em! Right?

We are at war with N. Korea. Just not fighting. There was never and end to the Korean War, that is why we are still in Korea Guarding the 38th.

Maybe France, Canada, and all the rest were trying to get oil for themselves. At this point we'll never know. What pisses me off is that kids had to go and die because of America's thirst for black gold.

Wow, you have no regard for the Iraqis that were killed and Tortured by Saddam. Do you not think that it is better that Iraq is not under Saddam anymore? But you are saying that it isn't ok for us to go in and take him out, but it is ok for other Governments (that aren't under Bush(why i think that you are against all of this) ) can pay the man to stay in power to slip them oil .

We went to war for oil. Again. PLAIN AND SIMPLE. And the fact that there are people out there who think that's ok disgusts me. If I was a parent and I learned that Bush sent my kid off to die becasue he wanted oil for his big oil friends it would really piss me off.

And you know what when someone joins the army they better be prepared to go and fight and could die.
