Terrorism

Who started this war? Why? </font>[/QUOTE]The terrorists did because they hate us, because we are the opposite of everything they believe in. </font>[/QUOTE]Wrong answer. Bush started this war in Iraq because he wanted to occupy the oilfields. You realize we're buildinf permanent bases in Iraq, right? Yes, we had a terrorism problem before invading Iraq but it's gotten much worse since then.

 

Let me get this straight - You asked an innocent sounding question, and when you received the answer, you used your 'Christian' love by hitting us over the head with your own ego and self effacing hate. If you are some kind of comedian, perhaps you should seek another topic. Terrorism is too close to home for some of us to enjoy the witty banter you might engage in at cocktail parties or whatever.

No hate here. Prejudice? Sounds like you are flipping typical cards into the debate because you have nothing of value to add. OR you have entirely different definitions of hate and prejudice than the rest of us.

I suppose I could have appreciated your opinions more if you had not used your church as a platform to speak out on your personal opinions of certain worldly topics. And it would have helped immensely if you knew what it was you were talking about instead of launching into something that sounded like a headline from the National Enquirer.

Lastly, if I were you, I would certainly cease commenting on what others have in their hearts. You dont know any more about that than you know about your topic. Talk about prejudice....

Baloney.

Al Qaeda and their sympathizers like the Taliban started this war. And the Iraqi government was an al Qaeda sympathizer as well.

Civilians get killed in wars all of the time. The terrorists intentionally kill civilians, go out of their way to kill civilians, make sure they kill civilians.

We kill civilians because it is unavoidable in killing the terrorists or bringing about the unconditional surrender of nations like Germany and Japan in World War II.

 

Odd, in the six months I 'occupied' Iraq, I never saw any oil to steal, since you know I am entitled to the spoils of war? Oh brother.

What some people do not know about the reasons for war - is a lot.

 

It's likely we'll get more of a market share of Iraqi oil in the next few years, but we're not really getting any right now because the infrastructure is so damaged it needs to be put right before production can go up to its normal level. This isn't going to happen until Bush is out of office. The sole result of this will be marginally cheaper gasoline in the US. Then ex-President Bush will receive the same perk as everyone else in the US--saving a few cents a gallon at the pump.

So what is President Bush's pressing personal interest in Iraqi oil? Leaving out conspiracy theories, of course.

Yes there is oil there. About 1/3 of the world's oil supply is sitting under the sands of Iraq. And the problem is..wait for it...
Saudi Arabia.

They do not wish for more oil to infiltrate the world's supply system because it would cause all oil prices to drop.

The President's personal interest in Iraqi oil? I would say no more than any other American's personal interest. I have read many things on the President's commitment to alternative fuels - we use them in the military already - and I am praying that people will embrace it and move on. That would take a great deal of bargaining chips out of oil rich countries bag of tools.

Without oil, there would still be struggle for power and strife. And there will be people perverting their religious teachings to stretch it to fit their hatred.
