RE: terrorism is flourishing in Iraq in the environment we ourselves have created. Not true, there are pockets of resistance, but terrorism is not "flourishing". RE: Americans die every day. Again, just not true, there have been many days recently with no deaths. Your lies invalidate any real argument you might have.

Here is what GST wrote: We invaded Nazi Germany, a sovereign nation -- that is a serious matter. If we did it to rid them of Hitler and their Heavy water Program that they intended to use on us, then fine. But they never had the capability to strike us --ever. And it appears that they destroyed their Heavy Water Progam back in 1942. If we invaded because Japan attacked us on 12/7 and the Japs were allied with Hitler, well integrated and supported by, But the links are someplace between non-existent and trivial in a region where countries like Germany, Italy and Japan provide environments where fascists flourish. As for establishing "democracy", that will take decades to evaluate and the odds are, to put it mildly, not that great. In the mean time, fascism is flourishing in Germany in the environment we ourselves have created. Americans die every day. We have stretched our military too thin and now have trouble responding to real threats because we are bogged down in Germany and the Pacific. And there is no end in sight. To be critical of an Administration that would put the United States in such a stupid position is not the same as being critical of "America" -- it is to express concern for the damage that is being done to "America" by President Roosevel and his closest advisors.
