Died for what????? Are you kidding me???. If you can't see the difference between Afghanistan and Iraq than you have no business commenting on war and politics in general. Tillman died searching for the people who attacked our country this date 6 years ago. How dense can you be? That's pathetic.

Right. For Oil. It's just that little thing that runs the world. No biggie.
I've grown more anti-Iraq since 2004 and want our men and women out of there as much as the next guy. But when people throw-in "meh, it's just for oil" I cringe. If it wasn’t just for oil the USA would collapse. If there was ever a reason to fight this war it would be for oil and not WMD. If the admin came forward in 2003 and said they were going in for oil we could at least say oil is in Iraq and that we need it. Lots of it.

China's got alot of oil also and probably more to be uncovered.
It's just a matter of searching for the oil reserves.

Sure, I'm down for some oil right about now. The funny thing is is that Bush could have gotten on TV really serious in a nice pressed suit in about December of 2002 and said "Listen, Saddam says he's gonna jack oil up a couple bucks which means you're gonna pay $1.50 a gallon instead of $1, we're going over there to beat his *** and set an example."
90% of Americans would have been all over that, patting soldiers on the *** on their way out.

or fake some dead iraqi frogmen on the coast of florida with spears tipped with sarin gas. They're trying to INVADE, and they want to convert us all to islam? oh hell no!

Your point is what, that gas is almost 3 times as expensive as when we invaded Iraq?????? Name another instance where America as endured an Iraq like war without naming Vietnam as there is clearly no oil there (or monetary motivation what-so-ever)?
You're struggling to make a point here. You went from "Iraq was a scam, we got shafted" to "enjoy the freedom fallen soldiers have provided".

yep, my mailman is crazy because of it and has joined a class action lawsuit against the manufacturers. he's different kind of sick, tho-I got the anthrax vaccine and got some gulf war syndrome, but mine is different than his (no joking). Total different set of symptoms.

that's easy-the war on drugs! iraq is a bigger battle but part of the war on terror. BUT you couldn't detain people w/o charges in the war on drugs, you could just lock them up for life in federal and state owned, corporate run prisons. now we can call them "freedom houses" for the GWOT detainees!
Iraq has sophisticated IEDs, a fundamentalism to morally (and mentally) support its fighters, a dynamic insurgency, access to high end weapons, and a massive indigenous population to blend in with. Sure, just like the war on drugs. Let's just re-write DARE in arabic and we'll be all set.

I find the whole oil argument pretty hilarious really. First off, guess why Saudi Arabia has one of the most oppressive regimes in the middle east (possibly the most), is run by Sunni Muslims who live lives of luxury (Saud family Princes) while their citizens live lives of misery yet.....................they have no military. Probably because America promises them protection as long as they provide oil. Reference the Gulf War, where'd the attacks on Kuwait/Iraq come from? SAUDI ARABIA. We don't need Iraq for oil, we'd have been better off going to Nigeria (a stones throw from Darfur) because in 2002, they imported 8 billion gallons more oil to the US than Iraq. (Nigeria imported 19.3B/Iraq 11.3B). Saudi Arabia gives up more the 6 times that amount a year.
It's so funny how people forget Saddam was the very first to use a chemical weapon against a civilian population (Kurds in the north during the Al Anfal campaign). There is documented proof he had tons of Sarin under the guise he was making agricultural pesticides. Why is it so hard to believe he had this stuff in 2003?
