There are WMDs there? Man, maybe I've been watching the wrong news for the past year or so?
And terrorists? Well, that's a touchy, very subjective term.

Waste of time. The US should be focusing on the threats from China and the EU, not the Middle East. If we don't start working hard now, the US could lose its place in the 21st century.

Both wars were needless and unnecessary. The United States should become more isolationist and start giving more of a shit about it's own people. I can't wait to finish a year of college and get the fuck out of this hopeless cesspit country either way.

Make love, not war? War comes with love, humans have always been known for both. I've known "hippies" that go nuts and start acting like homicidal maniacs. You can't supress humanity.

Depends on what you consider a waste. Nobody will ever know the true reasons we went to war except those that made the decision. All we can do is speculate and state our opinion.
What are your thoughts?

I feel we aren't getting too much out of it right now, but if we stopped it all right now that would Suck for all those that have died while fighing it.
