How can anyone possibly say that the rapping, beating and abusing of any human being no matter how bad they are is justified. The US specifically went into Iraq to help the Iraqi people, well that was after bush lied and attempted to convince people there were weapons of mass destruction. so if we disregard bush's lying, then we get the result of thinking that he went into Iraq to help them. Now in Iraq there is a formal military and then the citizens. Now initially the citizens were not very mad, but when they saw that a) museums, hospitals, schools, power plants, shopping stores, and many other civilian structures were destroyed they became just a little angry. Then when they found out that the only structures the US secured after the invasion was oil well. At that point im sure they realized that the US was there to help them, emulating the bests and most positive aspects of western societies (sarcasm). Im sure the Iraqis were really very impressed. Now that resistance has greatly increased as people go without basic human necessities and there children suffer, many of these people have nothing to live for and as a result will put there life on the line to help there country. Now that the US has proved its self to be the enemy of the middle east, and has taken to the practices of rapping, torturing beating, and abusing prisoners in all sorts of fasions, the iraqi's and the rest of the middle eastern and 3rd world countries and decided to do something. They see the hipocritical aspects of the US. There nazi like treating of prisoners. While the US once stood for peace, and truth, and justice, they no longer are perceived in that light.
They are seen as a group that is targeting the iraqi’s and all islamics, with the intent of wiping them out. This perception has not been wiped out in the prisons where iraqi’s are forced to accept Christianity and to be raped with lights. The “terrorists�, a convenient word for the US to use so that they can avoid the basic rights all humans deserve, are now feeling threatened. There population has been attacked, there women and children, and now they feel that because they do not have the resources to fight the US military, and they feel that it is there citizens that have been attacked, they attack US citizens. The US has proved itself to be untrustworthy, lying, and it has stepped down to the level of the terrorists. Because the US is the most powerful, they must be the most considerate, and the nicest. If they want members of the middle east, and “the terrorists� to change there ways and to seek a true solution and a better way of life, the US and the west must care, they must display honorable characteristics of the west, show the things that set us apart. The US will win in a winy schoolboys battle of shot for shot, where you hit us we’ll hit you back. While stopping terrorism and resistance may be achieved through a dictatorship of the likes of the Nazi regime in Europe, I ask if this is truly what the US proposes to do, and would like to do. The only other course is being the nicest, upholding high, good, true values, and doing what is right asopposed to working altierier motives and for other goals. The US has created a new Vietnam, one that will require great care and help to become a developing country that is not in the grip of chaos. Finally the US needs to admit they were wrong and begin to start working with the international community because the US will need all the friends it can get in the coming years.
One life. One world. Live, or die trying.
