Here's a question for you... don't take it personally.

I'm just assuming you're a man who has a wife and kids but I could be wrong. So just pretend you are and look at it from an Iraqui's point of view for a minute.

OK so lets say-- before we went to Iraq, there you are with your family. You're all getting along great. You come home from work one day and find out your oldest son was walkin home from school and stopped to play some basketball at the park with a few friends. Well turns out he's not coming home because he died from being shot by a Sunni/Shitte (whichever one your family isnt). Then the military has been roaming the streets lately and turns out they thought your wife was pretty hot. So they rape her. Also your daughter can have no chance of becoming anything in her life because women had very few rights under Saddam Hussain's rule. Also turns out your neighbor's son got in with the wrong crowd and decided to train to be a suicide bomber.

So see right here in America, your son could be the next Michael Jordan, and your daughter can grow up and be anything she sets her mind to. Also you and your wife can live together happily, and the worst trouble your kids would most likely get into is for smoking, drugs, or alcohol (not that its a good thing but its better than what could happen)

SO ...do the Iraquis want our help?

Most likely they do.
Are they going to start a rebellion and ask for it?
No.
Because they didnt want half their family dead or tortured...

But anyways I really agree with what Torqque had said earlier
and I agree with you that if our country keeps our nose out of other people's business then maybe we wouldnt be in suck a mess...

Thats just my opinion though...

That maybe one of the best posts/replys I have ever read. It really got me to the point where I am thinking pretty hard before I respond. Naturally, it would be extremely hard to argue with your points in that light. But I need to think about that one a little more before I give you my final answer . . .

Regardless--great post.
