So let me see, you want to invade another country, call it a war, put on trial anyone from that country who shoots at the invading army and still call it a war.

Seems to me like you want to have your cake, lock it up for an indeterminate time without charge, torture it and then eat it.


Either it is a war or it isn't. If the opposition are commiting a criminal act by shooting at an invading army then it ceases to be a war.

Joo, I know you have your beliefs but you stance on this is entirely unsuppourtable. Prove to me that the entire country of Iraq were members of Al-qaeda and you have my backing, but come on man.

The United States INVADED Iraq plain and simple. Anyone in the Iraqi military at the time was honour bound to fight and resist. I would also argue that any civilian would have had the right to join the insurgency. Whether you like agree with their aims or not, whether you think your country is doing the right thing or not, this whole "give up their war" spiel is absolutely ridiculous.


Answer this please.

The following people would have the right to shoot as US forces, yes or no.


1.) Members of the Iraqi military. (during the initial invasion)

2.) Disbanded members of the Iraqi military who have decided to fight a guerrila war against the US.

3.) Shiittes who saw their entire families slaughtered by Hussein after Bush#1 called for an uprising and then totally abandoned them to Saddams army. (sh#t, I know I would have an axe to grind after that one)

4.) Any father, brother,uncle, cousin who had family members killed by American forces. ( Oh, but they didn't mean to kill them or we are the good guys doesn't cut it. )

5.) Any Sunni that had nothing to do with Al-Qaeda, who had seen his family slaughtered by Shiite militias. Let's face it, the destabilization caused by the invasion led to the power vaccum which allows these militias to operate.

If any one of these situations were to pertain to ANY American, I hardly doubt you would be asking JIM BOB to lay down his weapon and "give up his war".

You cannot invade a country, then claim that everyone within that country that fires upon you is a criminal. You say all these men in these prisons are AQ but you cannot prove this. neither do you want to. You just want to hold anyone you consider to be an enemy without trial.

By your logic, after pearl harbor any japanese soldier who fired on a US soldier is a criminal. Really this is either a war or it isn't. Until you can prove that all them men being held in those prisons are AQ you do not have a point. Of course to prove that, they would have to go to trial. There is no third category in between criminal and enemy combatant...you cannot make new classifications to abuse people's rights.
