Dire Consequences
Presently, our military is attempting to keep the lid on the civil war in Iraq, but eventually our troops will be redeployed and the sectarian violence will increase. The invasion of Iraq has proven to be a total catastrophe. We should get out now, because there is nothing our military is going to be able to do and it’s not going to get any better.
The way to get out of Iraq is take every American out with us. Otherwise, we’re just going to get further bogged down in Bush’s quicksand of lies. We invaded Iraq for their oil reserve and that is the only reason our troops are continuing to be sacrificed on the alter of imperialistic greed, by the Bush regime.
People around the world had felt sympathy and love for America, because of what happened on 9/11. We had a chance to be the most popular nation on earth, but hatred, vengeance and greed allowed the military industrial complex to take control of the situation.
The Bush regime has stressed the military option as the most effective means to combat terrorism. At times military tactics have merit, but creating an imperialistic war of revenge is clearly not the answer.
The invasion of Iraq was a perfect example of how not to deal with terrorism. The Bush regime has created the conditions for our eventual defeat in Iraq, and it’s all over, but the killing of more of our troops and another trillion dollars in costs to pass on to future generations.
Nebraska Republican Senator Chuck Hagel recently said: “What we are doing to our force structure in this country is disastrous. We essentially are ruining our National Guard. We are destroying our Army. We're destroying our Marine Corps. We can't sustain this kind of deployment and training tempo. And the consequences of that, you're seeing at Walter Reed Hospital, for example, and the consequences of that, for example, dumbing down your United States Army. We are now in a situation where we're waiving criminal records, drug-abuse records to entice people to join the Army.”
