@Cycloptichorn,
Quote:On the contrary; the Iraqis were not in the process of rebelling against Saddam when we decided to invade. We did not decide to assist an ongoing rebellion, we engaged in a proactive war against a country who had not attacked us. This is what we call a false analogy on your part; Bush didn't 'save' anyone.
The illegal invasion was called Operation Iraqi Freedom, and Bush's stated intention was to liberate the Iraqis from persecution from their own administration. Hell, Bush even arranged this little celebration, with banners proclaiming "Mission Accomplished" while stating that was far from the truth.
Why does is take an Aussie to remind you of this? Because our men and and women were still there, after everyone else realised it was a scam invasion.

Quote:Although Bush stated at the time "Our mission continues" and "We have difficult work to do in Iraq," he also stated that it was the end to major combat operations in Iraq. Bush never uttered the phrase "Mission Accomplished";[2] a banner stating "Mission Accomplished" was used as a backdrop to the speech. Bush's assertion—and the sign itself—became controversial after guerrilla warfare in Iraq increased during the Iraqi insurgency. The vast majority of casualties, both military and civilian, occurred after the speech

Given the facts, that anyone can easily access, your credibility is amusing.
It doesn't surprise me that you have five likes on this. The stupid! It burns.
The hot-air blowing up eachother's asses around here is also amusing.
