Baby Steps

Iraq was not a threat to my freedom.

Not a direct threat, no. However, anyone will admit it was a problem that would have needed dealt with sooner or later. Do you honestly think they would solve their problems themselves? Not hardly. In fact, It's Specialist Smith's hypothesis right here and now, that exactly five years after the last soldier leaves the ground and Iraq is considered stable, civil war will again erupt and some dictator will step up followed by individuals who know no better. As sorry as it is, you can't say they're stupid, you'd act the same way if you had been born into that situation.

Anyways, I know that if I were a civilian, I'd feel a lot safer knowing that we are constantly on terrorists' backs the way we are now, instead of letting them plot freely in a corrupt and financially supporting country such as Iraq or Afghanistan

Oh yea and It's steering off topic that most often makes talking fun. How long have you sit and talked to your friends about the same thing for hours on end? I doubt too very often unless you're playing a game. When one topic leads to another it makes conversation interesting. Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.
