50 soldiers killed in ISIS attack on Egyptian Army's Sinai checkpoints


Read the Iraq War resolution. Please show for me where Iraq was blamed for 9/11

GW Bush and his stupidity was the catalyst for ISIS and all that will follow on. If you elect morons to your highest office don't get sniffy when I call them out for their failures

Yes, that is your opinion and part of your BDS. You cannot however explain why there was relative stability in 2008 compared to what is there now. How long have troops been stationed in Germany or Korea? You simply are too naïve and gullible to understand the importance of being proactive instead of reactive
 
Please tell me why despite that more than two thirds of Americans once believed Hussein was directly involved ? Who fabricated the link

I posted the direct link to the resolution in Congress, a resolution that was approved by a 76-23 vote in the Democrat Controlled Senate. Please post the BS that shows more than 2/3 of Americans believe Saddam Hussein was directly involved in 9/11 and why does that even matter. The resolution is self explanatory, get someone to help you read it.
 

So how many decades would you have garrisoned troops there and what would it have cost your taxpayer ? The big difference between Iraq and the likes of Germany or Korea is that those indigenous populations actually wanted them there

The bulk of Americans didn't read it though did they.

There ya go ....

USATODAY.com - Poll: 70% believe Saddam, 9-11 link

I guess the disinformation worked pretty well :wink:

WE have housed troops in Germany for decades just like Korea and the cost is basically insignificant in the multi trillion dollar U.S. Budget. I find it quite telling what an expert you think you are regarding Iraq and what the people there want. You buy what you are told and nothing is going to change your mind.
 

You don't even know what the American people want, so how can you assume they want to fight endless wars?
 

Yes but the people of Germany and Korea weren't planting IEDs and sniping at your troops every day so the cost of and extended stay in Iraq would be far from inconsequential

You mean after the war was over... nvm
 
Oh, great, a USA Today Poll thanks so much for the laugh and does it matter what the public read or didn't read? You obviously didn't read it. the facts are in the link, the resolution was posted. I suggest you read it

You are missing the point. The fact is the American public didn't read it. They prefered to be led where the administration wanted them to go

There were Japanese many years after the war ended still fighting the war. War is hell but wars are waged to win them, people like you don't get it and never will

Congress read it and the Senate under Democrat control, a Democrat party now that demonizes the war, voted 76-23 to support it. Read the resolution
 
You mean after the war was over... nvm

And how long afterwards was the fighting still going on in those theaters ? How long would it have continued in Iraq even despite your very high troop numbers because few Iraqis ever viewed you as liberators ?

AS long as it took to assure that our loss of life and treasure were not wasted in vain and that our long term interests were protected

How many Iraqi terrorist attacks had there ever been on the US before it invaded ?
 
So why did the American public believe something else ? Even years afterwards in 2007 41% till held Hussein as being culpable despite all the evidence to the contrary

More Americans Believe that Saddam Was Directly Involved in 9/11 | Atlantic Review


Doesn't matter because we have a representative democracy in this country. Amazing how many here ignore that reality except when that representative democracy does something the individual supports. Guess you missed that in your civic class about America
 
How many Iraqi terrorist attacks had there ever been on the US before it invaded ?

Ask our apparent best ally Israel about Saddam Hussein funding terrorists. Again apparently you didn't read the resolutions so stop digging your hole of ignorance deeper. Such passion you have for your beliefs even though proven wrong
