We aren't dying for Iraqi freedom. If you don't believe me watch how it unfolds in the next year.

I believe the first question RWer's always ask when we venture into foreign lands is...."why is it in our national interest??
Having said that, why do you now put it in terms of fighting for "their" freedom? The wars in France and S.Korea were not for the primary purpose of dying for their freedom, but rather to stop the spread of Naziism and Communism from reaching our soil.... Gulf War I was to protect our oil interests. Somalia was truly an humanitarian effort, and imo, Bush Sr.'s finest hour..... The lack of intervention in Rwanda and now Sudan might well be due to racism....
