Heh. Are you serious?galenrox said:Alright, I haven't read the above yet, but I feel I probably don't need to.
I'm going to let you in on a secret. You don't know why we starting killing Iraqis. Unless you can provide evidence that you do know the real reasons behind those in power's decision. You cannot.We did not decide to start killing Iraqis based on their religion. For one, if we're gonna attack a nation just for being muslim, why didn't we attack Indonesia, or Iran, or Saudi Arabia, or Sudan, or Egypt, or Jordan, or Lebanon, or Syria, or any of the other nations that are hugely muslim?
I don't need to, because that was not my claim. it was derived from Calm2Chaos's post about bush and his christian morals, it was a logical extension. No, I happen to not think religion was a "primary" motive for the war.Even if you've managed to prove that religion played a role in our decision making, which I doubt, you absolutely have not proven that that is the reason we went to war (namely due to the fact that that is impossible).
Say what you will about Iraq, but for the love of God use some sense. If you honestly believe what you've said, then you're quite firmly in the tin foil hat club. Right or wrong, Bush went into Iraq because he legitimately believed it was the right thing to do in the interest of our nation's security.
