I would not compare the completely unnecessary war in Iraq to WWII. Japan attacked the U.S.A. and Germany declared war against us. Iraq did not attack the United States nor is there any credible evidence that the government of Iraq supported the terrorists that attacked the United States on 9/11/01. There is not any evidence of an active program to produce weapons of mass destruction (WMDs), which was the justification for war.

That analogy makes sense only if you belive there was never any plan on what to do after the former government was removed, which you belive and I don't. The Democrats keep saying we need to get the UN involved. The UN was there last October and left when the main diplomat was killed.

Now that we are there, we are committed just like Viet Nam until we run outta
money or a promising change takes place.  I just hope that we don't have to
sacrifice anymore brothers, sisters, aunts and uncles.

I hope no one else dies either but to insinuate that Americans are being needlessly sacrifices is wrong. Americans died liberating Europe in WWII. Would you call those deaths a sacrifice?
