A question of morality and ethics

Whether our perceptions are right or not, many believe that GWBush lied to engage in this war with Iraq. If his lies were responsible for this war, and thousands of innocent and military Iraqi's were killed as a consequence, who has the moral and ethical responsibility? Saddam for his non-cooperation with weapon's inspection? The US Congresss for approving the war? Or the American People? Please state your case why you chose one over the others. Thx, c.i.

If Bush's lies were responsible for the war -- none of the three is correct in my opinion.

Bush is responsible.

i'll leave to the bard.

"See what a scourge is laid upon your hate,
That heaven finds a means to kill your joys with love
All are punished."

It is Bush's responsibility. He lied to the american people in order to win support for what he wanted. There was never a time that i personaly saw Iraq and Sadam a threat to the US. Other Arib countries did not see him as a threat, even though they did not like Sadam at all. I am glad that we did "free" the Iraqi people and i can only hope that soon they will really see what opportunities they have now to live a free life.

Only time will tell.

If the finger is pointing Bush's way, the resonsibility lies with those who elected him!

Someone should "crown" him, with something very heavy!

(I assume the CIA is reading all this, so much for going accross "that" border again!)

Now that would be a REALLY thankless, boring job; to make your way into work, at the CIA headquarters, pick up a coffee, sit down at your computer every morning, enter a search for "Bush", and read everything that is being typed on the internet about him! Rolling Eyes
And report on it Embarrassed

CIA???

Oh boy, am I in trouble.

I called Bush a moron in several posts.

Although I did take it back and apologize in one thread.

I just remembered that I apologized to any morons who might be with us.

maybe we should start a "Bush Buddies" thread? Twisted Evil
(a little self preservation mixed with denial)

Come to think of it, if they do a "Bush" search, they are probably inundated with "crotch porn"; (not much difference)

You didn't see any threat, but then why would you? Are you a politician or a Statesman?
