No. Prove it.
Wow, that's a lot easier than the bigger posts I usually make about this.
No offense but your teacher is a nut. I hope he stated "In my opinion.." at the beginning of each statement. It's irresponsible to be in a position like that to force opinions on students as if a fact. We are there to learn what is. Typical of teachers anyway, fortunately i haven't had to deal wtih that bs yet.
Actually, I wish we would steal their oil. lol Somewhat sarcastic there.
Yes because america can't buy canada's oil or anything so we send troops over to the middle east to steal terroist's oil? Terroist's don't even have oil. Your teacher's an idiot.
Correct me if i'm wrong but dont think he mentioned terrorist's.Quote:

No one WANTS to leave our troops over there. Hell I wish we never would have went over there. Whether you like it or not, many Iraqis ARE appreciative of what "we" have done. But that's all that's come from it and I don't think it's worth all of the blood, sweat, and tears that it's caused. What's done is done and it's best to just accomplish the mission. Nothing worse than doing it for absolutely nothing. You know?Quote:

If you live where I live, your teacher can get fired for saying that. My teachers aren't even allowed to tell us their political views.
Exactly. That shouldn't be accepted whatsoever.Quote:

Not my thing but just said that as a joke, the famous thing.
I don't care for news. But didn't George Bush say something about WMD's? The reasons for invading Iraq are beyond me.
Yeah? Did he lie? No. Did we find them? No. Does this mean he lied? No. Does this mean he used this to get into Iraq? Very well possible, I'll give it that much. Bush is whack, but I wouldn't call him stupid or dumb.Quote:

Werent they going in for WMD's? But they didnt find any so they steal the oil.
The Israelies are just doing one of the things they do best right now, fighting. No insults intended, but when push comes to shove, they know what to do.Quote:

Back on topic now, I think ALL areas should require teachers to keep their political beliefs to themselves.
*Sarcastic* Wow, I wonder what our gas prices would be if we weren't stealing the oil.Quote:

Now tactically, what is the best country to attack on this map?
(hint: The one in the middle)
Really? i didnt know Iraq had no oil. I'm sure it has a decent amount plus my crazy teacher (she BTW) also said that the one of the other reasons that America went to Iraq was to get close to Iran because they had no reason to try to take control of that place untill now.....Quote:

Thats great for America being a Humanitarian Nation.
I await Rage on Dream's reply!
Yes and no. A large part of the reason we're over there is because of the War on Terror. Deny that as you will, but even Bin Laden has acknowledged that little tidbit in his last few statements, Iraq is essentially ground-zero now.Quote:

You mean the topic name just states the obvious?Quote:

I believe america used the war on terror excuse to get other things.
You teacher is so freaking slow! People have been suspecting that since 2003 or when ever the hell we entered Iraq. God damn I wonder how much some of you actually read. Any ways no one can prove it to be true or not but people use the fact that the Oil companies are making bank
The whole war on terror was bull imo.
the real reason we went there was to take control of the oil.
One of the so called reasons on going to iraq was to take out osama bin laden. If we really wanted to , America could of captured him a while ago
I have one very important question. How many times were you dropped on your head as a child? The Middle East contains most of the world's oil, and the last I remembered, alqaeda's terrorist syndicate was centered in the Middle East.Quote:

the irag does have the richest oil in the country!
so they trying to steal it..
hmm...
that s why on my brothers country OIL PORICES HAVE BEEN INCREASED EVERY MONTH!
Now, if you knew anything about the American government, you'd know that they gave money and training to Saddam and they also set him as dictator of Iraq.
Then later, they (america) bomb iraq and take Saddam to jail because of war crimes.
Now is Saddam really the one who commited war crimes? Or is america the cause of it all?
Going to war is a good thing. If you don't well then no world power for you then.
Even if you lose the war you still get power in the end. Too lazy to do explaining but think about.
i wouldnt doubt if they attacked for the rescources. i mean hell we got a redneck dumb shit president but everybody knows we lack oil and they have exactly what we dont. all it would take is the slightest thing (whether they got evidence or not) to set us off and declare a war.
ok just to clear things up Bush isn't stupid he just makes poor decisions. If you think he is stupid then think about it... he couldn't of became if he was stupid. Just because he is from the south people who are blinded by stereotypical thoughts call him a dumbass. I'm from the south and when im in the 10th grade i can take all ap classes does that make me dumb, no. Most of my family is from the south does that make me a dumbass, no. I'm related to a president also. Why would we steal oil when we have oil in alaska and we can buy oil from different countries? I find it infuriating(sp?) that this country can't rely on it's president when we freaking ELECTED HIM. I would not be suprised if a country starts nuclear war with us, because the other countries rely on rumors and oppinions instea of facts. There is no proof that we are stealing oil. If someone can prove me wrong ill stand corrected. Now Saddam commited war crimes not the U.S. because we are not responsible from Saddams actions. Now that Iraq is going to be a democratic country because we stopped dictatorship. IRAQ is now responsible for its own actions.
NOW here is a little question: It's time to elect a new world leader u have 2 choices: A: a guy who drinks beer everynight and doesn't talk to his wife much and hunted for fun. B:a guy who never beat or cheated on his wife, loved his dog.
choose plz and when you want to know who these people are ill pm you
ROD just because people didnt vote doesn't mean it's unfair and im not going to explain why if you don't know then dont ask. and whose "we" i was talking about the nation in general you can't speak for everyone. you go to newyork and ask them wat kind of people live in the south... most of your answers will be rednecks or people who aren't that smart. and do you know who never beat his wife or cheated on her is... it's adolf hitler and the person who drinks so much liquor is roosevelt. and ROD you just helped confirm the stereotypical behavior by impressioning(sp?) bush the worst president. Oh and the only way you can be elected unfairly is my voting frauds such as putting down dead people and thanks manic
