Hi All,

          When we talk of US war, we have to take two dimensions of it. The war itself and the stage later. US war on Iraq was based on the reason of "Weapons of Mass Destruction" which couldn't be found. The heinous killing of thousands and torture to millions by Saddam Hussain and his sons is highly notorious. One has to punish them to death to retain humanity in this world. The ghastly incidents of killings shown in TV's in the early war days do show the barbaric nature of Saddam. If you can remember in one of the incident young boys in their placing bombs in their pockets with their mouth and hands tied killed twenties. In one of the evacuation process, some thousands of skeletons were found showing mass killings using mass of weapons of mass destruction. The war taking lives of Saddam Hussain sons is a great achievement and seizing of power from the dictator is quite appreciable.

The other dimension is the suffering that is still borne by the citizens. The war on Iraq could be won with little resistance was a known fact. The American power was on show during the war but killing of innocent civilians is not an acceptable fact. No one can justify the death of even one person for no reason or mistake of him. The plight of the civilians during the war is more pathetic with no security and basic amenities. Loyalists of Saddam created much furor in the region to make things just worse but the fall of Saddam was celebrated all over. The task of America then was to restore peace and rebuilt the nation with a constructive government and leaves the place as early as possible. Their return delayed and trouble mounted day by day to a situation, which is getting worse as days are passing by.

Hi everybody...

          I don't think US war against Iraq was right. Every country has their own issues but if the country like US always does the same like in Iraq then the world is going to be hell. I am not in favor of Saddam but it is the internal issue of Iraq. Who gives the power and rights to US for a war to solve the problem by killing innocent peoples? UN is there. Did US take the confidence of UN before the war? NO.....

Till now US army can't find any Weapons of Mass Destruction. So what’s the purpose of that war then? In my opinion J.Bush only wanted the revenge. That’s all…since the work, which he has done for the peace of Iraq people, could be possible by UN and international committee.

Hello

US war on Iraq-justified or not. Well COMPLETELY its A war on TERRORISM. We don’t have any right to kill innocent people for somebody else. ITS NOT JUSTIFIED.

Simply Saddam should be punished for the way he ruled Iraq, killing many people. Today his situation is pathetic in  USA. No one is saying to reuse him rather than PUNISH him.

USA has destructed completely the PEOPLE, RESOURCES, LOOTED EVERYTHING infact.

IT EASY TO KILL BUT VERY DIFFICULT TO MAKE A LIFE, which these mindless people will never know

            The war on Iraq by US is inhuman activity. Many innocent people have lost their life due to the outbreak of the war. The attitude of US must have been to save the life of people from the clutches of saddam and his son. But the citizens of Iraq were the one who were mainly affected by the out cause of this war. As US is a powerful country with huge weapons, no other country can sustain before it. This can happen to any country tomorrow .So it is in the hands of we people to protest against this inhuman activity.

          The only thing good from the war was the ousting of Saddam, but this could have been done without making such a big Hoopla out of it all.  The way the war was carried out is totally unacceptable.

Saddam had to be ousted for he was an inhuman dictator. Everything he has done is totally heinous from the invasion of Kuwait to the genocides perpetrated against his people. This victory of US was celebrated everywhere, though his policies will be denounced forever.

           But, the war raged by US was redundant, with unnecessary show of power. It is kind of a tradition for the American presidents to show off.

From the world war-2 till the present day. The main objective of the US, which is pretty much obvious, was to fulfill its desire of controlling the oil resources in the Middle East, as there is a very high demand of oil in both the US and the European countries. It was a mere exploitation of the helpless people of Iraq.

        In my opinion the motive behind the war can also be collated with the 9/11.The whole scenario of 9/11 was very humiliating for the bush government. It had exposed major breach in the security and the failure on part of the government and the CIA. It had bruised the reputation of the country's very powerful history. To my knowledge that was the only such incident in the history of US where a terrorist group, and that did such great magnitude of damage ironically happened in bush's tenure. So to clear that humiliating blemish on him the Bush administration launched the war against Iraq in the disguise of war against terrorism, after it's unsuccessful operation in Afghanistan to capture bin. Hence the excess shows of power to remind the world of its supremacy.

           So the war in Iraq is not justified and not at all at the cost of so many valuable human lives lost and the permanent damage done to the surviving desperate people who's lives have become even more pathetic after the war.
