Why We Fight (In Iraq)

WHEREAS:

Saddam Hussein, invaded Kuwait, unjustly, and 'for oil' for his own greedy purposes; and,

WHEREAS:

Saddam Husseins invasion of a sovereign nation required the nations of the world to assemble their armies and drive Iraq forces out at a great cost in lives and resources; and,

WHEREAS:

Having been defeated, Saddam Hussein's government entered into agreements with the United States, the coalition forces, and the United Nations, as a means of surrender and causing the ceasing of hostilities; and,

WHEREAS:

Having consistently violating said agreements, for over a decade, including, specifically, to force weapons inspectors to leave his country, and firing missiles at United States aircraft enforcing the no-fly zone; and,

WHEREAS:

The President, the Congress of the United States, and the United Nations, being of agreement that such violations required enforcement, and a continuation of the previous conflict to bring about the end of Saddam Hussein's evil empire;

THEREFORE:

War was caused upon Iraq resulting in the removal of Saddam Hussein, and his evil dictatorship, from power; and,

THEREFORE:

Saddam Hussein was brought into captivity to face the judgement of his people; and,

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:

As the people of Iraq require assistance to establish for themselves a government, we continue to stand by, bravely, to aid, comfort, support, and sustain, said government, until the people of Iraq are reasonably safe from catastrophy under the protection of their own governent.

This morning our President was again hit with questions about why we are at war in Iraq. I can only imagine his perplexity of having to explain this war a thousandth time.

The Democrats see a weakness here. They have consistently created an atmosphere of questioning, conspiracy (Haliburton, or 'just for oil' etc.) and it has been working to some small degree. We have not done a great job of explaining that Afghanistan and Iraq are two separate wars fought for separate reasons, with certain linked commonalities, ie: terrorism and WMD. The whole reason the U.N. was paying Weapons Inspectors is because the world didn't trust Hussein, but also because it was an agreement that ended the war. When he kicked them out, whether he had any WMD's before, he was now free to make them, and he had just violated one of the key terms for his continuation in power.

THIS IS WHY WE WENT IN THERE AND KICKED HIM OUT! (Please excuse the 'shouting')

It was NOT because of terrorism, WMD's, but because the thug in Iraq that killed thousands, shot missles at United States aircraft, and kicked out the weapons inspectors in violation of the terms. As President Bush said it "the U.N. mandates must have teeth." If you do not enforce agreements, then your bluff has just been called and you are made a weakling before the world.

I just thought I'd post this in the form of a 'resolution' because it seems to be a simple, compact, means of putting forward the information to those who are still confused after years of fighting, as to why we are over there.

Hope somebody likes it, and please feel free to add your own WHEREAS and THEREFORE's to it, and please feel free to copy, print, and distribute it everywhere. Thanks.

Iraq was on the US State Department's list of countries accused of sponsoring international terrorism for more than 20 years. That has to be considered one of the reasons for the Iraq war.

It is not, however, the specific reason we went in there. People need to stop confusing the war. The sheeples are easily misled. Just to say 'terrorism' has been largely marginalised by the press. For example, an article in the Philadelphia Inquirer, by 'political analyst' Dick Polman, is titled "GOP plays security card but nation has changed" (suburbs edition, Aug. 15th)

Mr. Polman's drivel indicates he believes, rather like a valley girl, that all this fighting terrorism stuff is "so five minutes ago." I guess he prefers that we just 'move on' as well.

So the liberal propaganda machine is still working overtime to destroy us, and they have certainly fooled a few people, but I don't think they will ever have all the power ever again, and despite all this blathering and depression among conservatives, I don't think we are going to lose anything in the November elections.

Every two years we find ourselves, according to the liberal press, sitting on the precipice, while the liberals have some kind of tidal wave, reason to hope, and blah blah blah.

My advice to liberals is to buy tickets traveling to, and land in Canada now, to avoid the rush. Prices will surely go up in November with all the crowds of liberals migrating northward. Liberals, Save yourselves some money! The Lord knows you hate to work!
