Pro-War Arguments Don?t Hold Water- A comprehensive shredding of the Rep/Dem reasons to continue the war
Pro-War Argument : "We can?t abandon the Iraqis"
(Buried) Truth/Fact :
- Leaked UK Ministry of Defense Poll
82% of Iraqis Strongly Oppose the presence of Occupation Troops
67 per cent of Iraqis feel less secure because of the occupation
- Howard Zinn: ?We are not trying to create democracy in Iraq. We are not trying to bring liberty to Iraq.
We are trying to bludgeon them into submission.?
Pro-War Argument : "We?re Liberating Iraqis"
(Buried) Truth/Fact :
- Napalm & White Phosphorus
- Depleted Uranium
- Hundreds of tons of Radioactive waste spread across their backyard. (mp3)
- Abu Ghraib Torture
Imprisoning thousands of innocents (Red Cross: 70-90% of those arrested are innocent!)
Pro-War Argument : "We can?t let the terrorists win"
(Buried) Truth/Fact :

Of 1,300 suspected insurgents arrested over the past five months in and around Ramadi, none has been a foreigner.
Pro-War Argument : "Civil War"
(Buried) Truth/Fact :

Compare April 9th 2003 & 2005
- ?Many Iraqis believe he suicide bombers are the work of the CIA blowing up civilians and mosques revered by both Sunni and Shia, in an effort to create the Civil War Excuse for continuing the occupation.
Pro-War Argument : "Bush: No timetables for withdrawal or the terrorists will just wait us out"
(Buried) Truth/Fact :
- Leaders of Iraq?s sharply divided Shiites, Kurds and Sunnis called for a timetable for the withdrawal of U.S.-led forces in the country and said Iraq?s opposition had a ?legitimate right?? of resistance. ie- they?re not terrorists, but Iraqis resisting the takeover of their country.
Pro-War Argument : "Our troops wantto stay"
(Buried) Truth/Fact :

- Most troops want to come home.
- Troop crippled thanks to ?Stop Loss? order
he fulfilled his duty, but the army forced him to return to Iraq.

Pro-War Argument : "We Must ?Support the Troops?
(Buried) Truth/Fact :
- Supporting the troops means not sending them into harms way unless it?s absolutely necessary.
- Bush & Co Lied to start a war.
- That is TREASON.
There is No Good Reason - PDF Flyer
The real reasons ?they? want to continue the war:
- Prevent Bush, Cheney, Rummy war crimes trial
- Continue flow of gravy train (looting America) to Halliburton and other BushCo cronies, $300 Billion so far, Murtha says they already want $100 Billion more for next year .
- Exxon, Shell, BP want to retain rights to Iraqi oil- if we leave, their contracts go up in smoke.
- 14 ?Enduring Bases? necessary to continue PNAC goal of Middle East domination
Bush?s noble cause is pure ?Big Lie? BUllSHit- they want to stay for the profit and power of the military-industrial complex. Don?t believe me, listen to Howard Zinn, Robert Fisk (mp3), Dwight Eisenhower & Andy Rooney.
