I oppose this war vehemently for the following reasons:1. WMDIraq had a robust nuclear weapons program during the 80s. 2 Things severely set that program back. First, Israels missle strike against a Iraqi nuclear reactor, i believe it was 1981. Second, the Gulf War itself.Saddam has no nuclear weapons, his chemical weapons have all expired, he has some chemical agents and some anthrax, etc. His weapons are a threat to no one realistically.2. InspectorsThe UN Inspectors were doing a great job. Sure Saddam wasnt co operating as much as he shouldve . But everything was going on track, till Bush started his war mongering, thus creating an environment that totally voided the whole inspection process.3. Regime ChangeYou cannot simply walk around replacing govts of your choosing. This is especially true considering Americas part in bringin Hussein to power. The CIA funded the rise of the Baath party in the 60s. They funded Saddam during the Iran/Iraq war. Until the mid 90s, Dick Cheneys company Haliburton was selling supplies and technology to Saddams govt. American CANNOT walk around lighting fires then subsequently putting them out when theys start feeling a little warm.4. Illegal WarThis is an illegal war and it is immoral. It is not approved by the UN. Bush is launching a pre emptive strike against a country based on hypothetical situations, future possible scenerios, and a big fuckin hunch. Thats it.5. ConsequencesIraq was the closest nation to a nuclear weapon program. Thus it was a threat somewhat to Israel, who by the way has over a 100 nuclear weapons. Israel will have no impetus to put any effort into the Mid East conflict. Terrorism will increase, Iraq will be destabilize and MAY erupt into internal conflict. Saddam will be made a martyr.6. Iraq aint shitThe game plan includes over 7 middle eastern countries seen as a threat to the US...meaning Israel7 . Iraq a threat?Iraq has no connections with terrorism, Al Qaeda hates him. His weapons cannot reach Europe much less the US.How is the US threatened.8. The casualtiesHate to sound like a hippie, but think of the civilians.Hope that helps
