Default Re: Thread for Opponents of Iraq War: \"Why\"?

I support the principles of it, and I support democracy. I'm not entirely a fan of this war though, because I think in the end the US will just pull out, and it will all be a waste. The American people don't have the attention span needed for important wars anymore.

What do you think were the principles we fought for? What made this war an "important war"?

[/ QUOTE ]

The principle, as I see it, is that all people should be free, and not subject to a dictator, and the Iraqis needed help to achieve this. What's that qoute, "injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere" ? - MLK? Something like that.

This war is important because it attempts to establish a stable democracy in a Muslim country.
