Who are we to liberate Iraq? Overthrowing a foreign government from the outside means bypassing all of the principles we in the west hold most sacred. All nations have a right to their own sovereignity(?) and it is up to the inhabitants of that nation to decide what government they should have. Now, you can argue that the people in Iraq don't have the ability to overthrow Saddam but the principle still stands, America invading Iraq and overthrowing it's government is a display of dictatorship on a global level.
Those who disagree obviously have their interests elsewhere and aren't being reasonable, they simply hate the United States and will do anything against good judgement to stand in their way. This has to be one of the most narrowminded statements I have ever come across and I doesn't even dignify a retort. Get of your high horse and come to terms with the fact that not all people in the world are envious of americans and that we much preffer to live where we do now.
And before you start galavanting around preaching about how other nations need to treat their inhabitants better, how about getting your own government to sign the civil rights act? Because as it is right now America hasn't and that makes it, in theory, no better than Iraq. |
