Remember Vietnam, the domino theory, if Vietnam falls to communism all of SE asia will follow? Guess what? It never happened. 58,000 Americans died for it, it was a lie. Last year there were 7,000 murders in the US, Americans killing Americans, but you don't hear much about a war on violence in America because it does serve the government's purpose. You are more likely to be killed by a American then by any "Terrorist." The government is pulling your strings and making you do whatever they want. The American people are too stupid to figure it out. 58,000 in Vietnam died for nothing and are all but forgotten. Those who have died and will die in Iraq will have the same fate. But will make alot of oil companies richer. This is why the US can not leave until the job is done. It's not about saving American lives, it's about making money, war is big business, invest your son.
