Support Our Troops???

[Guest idolsmasher]

by the way, if our main objective for this war was their oil, then why aren't we over their drilling it? and why on earth are we offering to help rebuild their country? and why on earth are we allowing other countries to have a part in the "spoils" of war?

I can see you don't get it LadyC.

they are free of tyranny

Ha! I don't think so. They are being occupied by a foreign military.

Ha! I don't think so. They are being occupied by a foreign military.

yet most of them are grateful for that...because they know it's only a temporary situation until they can handle their own security needs.

Sanchez Orders Iraq Prisoner Abuse Probe

Jan 16, 2:07 PM (ET)

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - The commander of U.S. forces in Iraq has ordered an investigation into reports of abuse of prisoners at coalition detention centers here, the U.S. military said Friday.

A military statement gave no indication about the scope of the reported abuse, saying simply that Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez ordered a probe "into reported incidents of detainee abuse at a coalition forces detention facility."

"The release of specific information concerning the incidents could hinder the investigation, which is in its early stages," the statement said. "The investigation will be conducted in a thorough and professional manner."

It added that the coalition "is committed to treating all persons under its control with dignity, respect and humanity."

Earlier this month, three U.S. Army reservists were discharged for abuse of prisoners at the Camp Bucca detention center in southern Iraq. In late December, Brig. Gen. Ennis Whitehead III determined that the three had kicked prisoners or encouraged others to do so on May 12.

Lt. Col. Allen B. West, a battalion commander in the 4th Infantry Division, was allowed to resign from the Army after he admitted firing a weapon near a detainee suspected of plotting attacks against American soldiers.

WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION AFTER ALL?

In a letter written to Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf last week, Syrian defector and journalist Nizar Najoef, known for challenging the Syrian regime, wrote that Iraq's WMD are located in three sites in Syria: in tunnels under the town of Baida near the city of Hama in northern Syria, in the village of Tal Snan north of a Syrian air force base, and in the city of Sjinsjar on the Syrian border with the Lebanon south of the city Homs. According to Najoef, the WMD components were transferred to Syria under the personal watch of Bashar Al-Assad and members of his family.

I think this is a pretty silly misinformation campaign. If this were true it would have been detected and no serious authority makes any claim like this.

about that clip....honestly.....I got audio but I couldn't see it so I assumed that was what this story was about. Either way, it shows that our government does not condone mistreatment of Iraqis

I think this is a pretty silly misinformation campaign. If this were true it would have been detected and no serious authority makes any claim like this.

Israel reported this happening 6 months before the war began. I am sure that we know what is there but we're waiting for the right time and opportunity to get rid of them and Syria's regime. Election time? Next term? Not sure what the wait is...

They will give them up with some heavy political pressure....or else! and Bush will reap the political rewards.

He has a long-term plan to end terrorism...don't forget that.

Funny though that just like Sharon he is instead creating more of it.

Smash, not to be antagonistic...really --- can I ask two questions?

Are you firm in your beliefs regarding Israel's and the United States' military actions? If you are, what makes you so sure?
