YES IT DOES!
i know my friends position on things before they went to iraq. They were actually muvh like you sir, drew. But after things change, and now ive seen that. So knowing sources personally and listening to what they say in everyday life about it reflect alot.
Your example is irrelevant, and has nothing to do with this dicussion. Were talking about reasons and ideas aroud war, not a classroom course.
Annd you CANNOT say we are drawing more violence to ourselves because you dont know what would have happened if we just ignored 9/11. Yes there werent many terrorist attacks before it, but mabye there would have been more after. I think you need to know someones who has died because of one of those dune coons to really relate. Mabye you have?
so what do you suggest we should have done after iraq? i really wanna know drew, bad. i gonna go ahead and assume you and your liberal stance on things would want us to just do nothing and bitch about it? No, we took action in afghanistan against al queda. i agree iraq was a mistake, but the war in total, no.
