“What does Iraq have to do with saving Western Civilization? That is about the most retarded thing I have ever heard in my life.”
Last time I checked, the international coalition (including the new Iraq forces) are not fighting a bunch of humanitarians and charitable organizations, but a large number of terrorist insurgency. The nature of war based on history, if one side doesn’t win, the other does. If the U.S lead coalition doesn’t defeat the terrorists and help maintain a civilized government, Iraq can become a terrorist state. The concept of taking over the world is not a new invention of militant Islam. It was revealed on 9/11/01, and proved after. The incremental takeover was interrupted by the U.S. invasion of Afganistan and Iraq. Militant Islam is on the defense now, but far from defeated. The world can’t afford to wait until an anti-western maniac supply them with nuclear devices. Imagine the worldwide chaos created by a half of dozen nuclear explosions. Not understanding the importance and magnitude of the war in Iraq is “the most retarded thing”.
