I have heard many views on the war in Iraq, many of which are founded on so-called fact. Although I believe the facts must be carefully examined if one is to make a conclusion about the ethics involved with occupying Iraq with American forces, I also believe that the lenses of logic being used to examine the situation are much too intense for looking at this particular situation. I believe that the overuse of logic in analyzing this war in Iraq is blurring the truth and clouding the judgment of the American people. What has happened and is still happening to those poor souls, our brethren who are citizens of middle-eastern countries but still our brothers, is undeniable, unforgivable, and among the most unjust of tyrannies—this was especially the case in Iraq. It was the case, that is, until American forces stepped onto Iraqi soil and fought for a people abused and oppressed by its own government which was ruled by terrorists. If it were not for the bravery of these American messiahs, the tortures, murders, and other crimes of that government would still hold absolute power over those unfortunate people in Iraq and terrorists would still have a safe-house in that nation's borders. These same terrorists launched an attack on the United States that temporarily crippled the Pentagon and decimated the World Trade Center in three horrendous strikes. I believe that there have been several more attacks attempted on US soil that have been halted by the precautions and protections of our armed services, including those on foreign soil. The best place to stop an attack is on the ground, away from the metropolises of this great nation. That is why I believe that it is a wise move to redistribute the American forces from Iraq into Afghanistan to apprehend the terrorist cells located there. The President and armed forces have my pledge of loyalty and support. These people defend my freedom, I will sustain them, won't you?
So what do ya think?
