^ truley the words of a wise man @ opey


The battle has been on going as far as recorded history, it is always going to be an issue. There is no completly right or wrong way to address the issue, but to ignore it, now that 's where the problems come into place. If we just sit back in our lazy chairs and watch football, oblivious to the mounting tensions and threats to humanity, then we have failed. Not only as a nation, but as a people! We can not afford to fail the people of this country or any country in this aspect. We can not allow those nations, organizations, or people to go unchecked. We need to make an agressive stand against human evil. I know people will argue our involvement is just as evil, but with this type of 'war' comes trade offs. We will never have a utopia, but does that justify the abuse and mistreatment of people because this is not a perfect world. I feel it is the responsiblity of the strongest to protect those in need. We are in a better position than most countries, so I feel it's a responsiblity of this country. It is a sworn duty of every administration to uphold and protect the people's freedom rights and interests. Against every possible threat and advisary, by direct or indirect means. Iraq is a classic example of indirect means. Most see it as greed for oil, but if you look deeper into it, winning independence from the Sultans in Saudi, protects our people in more ways than one. I too feel the oil was an issue, but from a well planned tacticle stand point. Sure freeing a people was good and just, but creating an Iraq where the people can prosper and at the same time disolve some of the dependencies we have on Saudi resorces, it's pure genius. Once the Iraqi economy and infulstructure is stabalized we will have a friendly government at the helms. One in which the people can prosper from, not just the old regime. We have an alternative source in which to buy our oil from, we then no longer need to play by the rules of Saudi Arabia. Which in turn will prove to be a heavy blow to the terrorist operations in that nation. We can move forward without our right arms tied behind our backs, and fight this battle against human evil with a new footing. It's all a trade off, but you must consider both sides..

Much respect to all...
