Augustus - Don't do this. You have stated why you think US is in Iraq legally. I refuted it. Don't come back to me saying you still "think" US is there legally, especially since you are not giving any further justification. it irritates me to see our men picked off 1 by 1 It irritates me to see Americans killed and it irritates me to see Iraqis killed as well. Iraq is under military occupation right now. Iraqis are understandably pissed. If they have started to fight the invader, that is only natural. It makes me sad to see those US army kids get killed for no reason other than a power play cooked up by Bush et al, but I can also understand why the Iraqis, thousands of whom were killed in this invasion, are hitting US soldiers back. At this point I would convey that the killing would end or we'll have to take another avenue that we'd rather not Like what? Invade Iraq? Kill Iraqis? Need I remind you your armed forces already did all that? That is why you don't resort to force until all other options are exhausted. Once it starts, you might get hurt, too. There are also other reasons, like it is not nice to kill people and all that, but I guess the first one is what people care for most.
