I just wanted to know what exactly everyone’s opinion was regarding the America’s war with Iraq and Afghanistan (Should we be still there, have gone in the first place, intentions, overall outcome, etc.) and to help fill me in on any information that I don’t mention or know about. I know that the Iraq War started in 2003 because of the weapons of mass destruction that Iraq allegedy possesed, the situation concerning their oil, and Suddam Hussein’s treatment (murdering) of his own people. Suddam Hussein was also accused of aiding Al-Qaeda. Although the weapons were never found and thought to have not existed at all, Suddam Hussein and his regime were brought to an end. We stayed there all this time to help them rebuild their country in hopes of preventing a reoccurance and to make it a protected and strong place. I also know that the War in Afghanistan started in 2001 because of the 9/11/2001 attacks made by Al-Qaeda members. The leader of the Al-Qaeda, Osama Bin Laden, was responsible for the attacks and the goal was to capture him, destroy Al-Qaeda, and bring an end to the Taliban regime in Afghanistan. America’s initial attack was successful in removing the Taliban from power in Afghanistan but they have not been completely removed. Some of Al-Qaeda’s camps have been destroyed but other than that most of the efforts in achieving those goals have been unsuccessful. All thoughts and comments will be greatly appreciated, thank you.
Re: War in the Middle East
simply put.. we, the muslim ummah, are failing to unite and they -the nonmuslims- are taking advantage of it. we are failing to solve our own petty issues and that leaves us open to attack
why do we need 'oppressors' when we got our own people oppressing our own people?

you'll see that osama isnt behind 9/11. they couldnt find enough evidence to pin it on him. he is wanted for crimes other than 9/11
Thanks for sharing a different perspective on the issue and for bringing that other bit of information to my attention.
