oc civic- i see where you are coming from now. Yes they are a different culture and yes they shouldn't be forced to live a life sytle similar to north america. BUt shouldnt they be given the right to live freely? From all that I have come to understand the people in Iraq live in fear and are not truly "free." What is wrong with giving them their freedom?

If they aren't able to fight for their own freedom because they are so controled shouldn't someone step in and give them the ability to live in a free nation? This would involve putting an elected leader into power.



yes we ARE getting somewhere

NO we should NOT fight for them.. BECAUSE moraly i think that opressign women (for example) is bad BUT they do not necisarily... how many years did the US opress blacks and women.. did any nation attack us to free them.. HELL NO.. and THATS my point.. if another nation IS wrong acording to world law (what we PRE AGREE ON) then hell yeah ill pick up a gun and stand next to you.. BUT i STRONGLY believe in the fundementals of freedom.. you can NOT run around the world and say ok china.. we don't like comunism.. if you dont change we are gonna wage war.. we CAN do other things to show dissatisfaction we can use things liek trade embargos against iraq.. we can CHOSE not to help them, NOT to be associated with them, AND to defend against them, but we can NOT choose how to run there country.. IF we start to do that we BECOME hitler... nazi like in nature..
