War in Iraq

 

            What do you think the people in Iraq feel about the United States invasion, destruction of property, the death of hundreds and thousands? We can only speculate. Ask yourself how you would feel if the United States has been invaded by another country, dictating rules and laws? Our freedom would be lost: freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom to have privacy and everything our four fathers had rebelled, fought, and bled for. Devastation would arise among most American people. The Constitution that we have followed for more than two hundred years would vanish. The reasons why we should not have invaded Iraq are because there is no proof involving the Iraqi government with the Al Qaeda terrorists, we had no proof of Iraqi government having nuclear weapons, and other countries in the U.N. had major disagreements on the invasion.
             Many people are against the whole idea of war. Some believe that war is for the best and will change everything for the better. The Bush Administration made it seem that we had a legitimate reason to declare war on Iraq. They have told us that Iraq is a dangerous country, hostile, and that they were positive that there was nuclear activity in Iraq. At first I was all for the war, all these reasons seemed good enough for me that Iraq should be taken out, but through reading other reports and researching this issue I am led to believe that we did not have the right to invade. If our own President cannot tell us the real reason he decided war, how do we trust him as our leader? .
             Persian Gulf War (also known as Desert Storm) was the war where George W. Bush's father involved the United States into the first war with Iraq in 1991. We were successful but unfortunately we didn't finish what we started with Saddam Hussein. Hussein was defeated and was driven out of Kuwait. In the first war with Iraq, Bush had all the support from the U.N. coalition. " U.S. President George Bush assembled commitments from other nations throughout the world.
