OT: Courage to stand up for the Truth

Well that little blunder has cost the lives of 500 + American soldiers and 1000's of wounded, many of whom will need to be rehabiltated. I'm sorry if the truth offends some people. Someone had to have the courage to publicly speak up for the families of our servicemen and woman. Howard Dean had the courage to speak up while Kerry, Lieberman, Edwards and Gephardt stuck their heads in the sand and voted for the worst military conflict since Vietnam.

War is necessary at times to defend our nation and our allies. This was not the case in iraq. No hard evidence has been given to indicate that Al Qaeda was working with the iraqi's. In fact, recent evidence confirms that Saddam urged his elite guard not to participate with the religious zealots that are ambushing our troops in iraq. No WMD found either; except traces of old chemicals that we provided for Saddam years ago. Those chemical weapons have a very short shelf life and where used to gas the Kurds. Saddam was our ally to keep the iranian fundamentalist threat from growing.

Ronald Reagan praised the Taliban as freedom fighters similar to our colonial patriots that kicked out the brits. How soon we forget.

This is an old argument and I suggest you research the facts.

No American soldier should die needlessly and without good reason.
