So why did we attack Afghanistan and Iraq? Options

[Too Exclusive]

Hrrrrmmm.... good question, considering Osama Bin Laden is Saudi, along with all but 1 or 2 of the 19 hijackers? So let me get this straight, Osama Bin Laden is from Saudi Arabia. 18 of the 19 hijackers are from Saudi Arabia, and we invade Afghanistan and Iraq? Hrrm. Interesting.

I'll probably regret egging on your bs, but why are your sources so trustworthy? I'm sure they aren't people with their own agenda or anything...yeah right. A friend of the family was killed a couple of months ago in Afghanistan. He was a contracter there. His family was very concerned about his safety and wanted him to come home. He, however, had never felt better about life. He said the people there were so happy to be rid of the Taliban. They help the American troops however they can and are incredibly happy at all the work that he and other Americans were doing to bring thier country into modern times. Things like building schools and roads and hospitals. Things that weren't being done by the Taliban. They enjoy listening to music and being able to walk in the street holding the hand of someone of the opposite sex. Who cares why we went. We made the world a better place.
As for Iraq, I always thought the WMD's was a lame reason. Also, a reason we didn't need. Iraq regularly violated the ceasefire agreement that came at the end of the Gulf War. They were regulary firing missles at US and English jets patrolling the no fly zones. To me, that was all the reason we needed. Once again, the world is a better place.
You see a media that paints a pretty picture of this war. I see a media that ignores all the positive things that are happening in Iraq to give you a daily death count. But they ignore the reason these soldiers are dying. They ignore the fact that Iraqi's have voted a government into office. A government that is doing it's best to run the country itself. Huh, yeah, how horrible we are giving them freedom.
