Is The War In Iraq Immoral?

The current intellectual reason given for opposing the war in Iraq by the anti-war liberal democrats, is that it's immoral.  Because it's immoral they feel that "we just can't win" and we should quit the effort and "bring the troops home" therefore losing by default.   They can then pontificate with great all knowing liberal condescension and say, "see, I told you so."   What was the famous phrase?  "Peace with Honor."   In their eyes this retreat will solve all our problems.  We should just leave Iraq and like Vietnam, allow it to be taken over by our enemies.  At best we can expect Iran, Syria and al Qaeda will move in and set up new terrorist training camps and we will be right back where we started from or worse.  The result of our leaving Vietnam was that millions of people perished by the sword.  Now the liberals suggest that leaving Iraq will solve ours problems,  as if there were none there before we invaded.  This is very short sighted.  They seem oblivious to the consequences of the power vacuum that we would leave there.  What message does this send to the world, both our friends and allies, and our enemies.  


Coincidentally this is similar to how we abandoned Afghanistan in 1988 and we all know how that lead directly to the Taliban takeover and resulting disaster of 9/11.  My question is this; how is that moral?  How is it moral to insure that the lives of thousands of brave young men who paid the ultimate price were in vain?  How is it moral to abandon the millions of good people in Iraq that voted for democracy and desire to live in peace and freedom.  But this is your liberal morality, not your traditional morality.  It is a progressive, not a lasting or even honest morality.  It is devoid of reason or an understanding of our history.  The democrats hope to seize power again by betraying America in her time of great need.  How is it moral to vote for a war and commit our troops into battle and then, because it is politically convenient, to change their minds and claim they were mislead by the president and work to undermine the mission and our success?  To me this is the epitome of immoral behavior at the national level.  To undermine your own country and insure it's defeat so you gain political advantage.  It is unbridled and unprincipled political ambition.  We used to call that treason.  Of coarse they justify this because they have convinced themselves that "the war is immoral."


I'm an American and I'm for winning this war.  I will not being deceived into thinking that because it is now politically convenient to define it as immoral, that will justify us quitting.  How is it moral to abandon our own soldiers on the field of battle and encourage our enemies to fight harder?  How is it moral to go to war and decide to quit because it is too tough?  How is it moral to show our enemies that we can't unite as Americans for our own national security?  How is it moral to allow a country like Iran to develop weapons of mass destruction and harbor terrorists and supply weapons that kill our soldiers?   How is it moral to play into our enemies hands and be an instrumental part of their victory?  The fact is - that the terrorists cannot win this war without the help of the democrats.  Therefore they have put a plan into motion to use them to achieve their long term goals.  They learned from Vietnam how to defeat America politically.  They use the democrats to help them to drive us out of Iraq and Afghanistan and thereby humiliate America and extinguish the infant flame of freedom in the arab world.  So far with the help of their best  and most reliable allies, the democrats, they are succeeding.


If we had found the weapons in Iraq, would the liberals be supporting Bush now?  I doubt it.  If we had found them, would that have justified our war against Saddam?  They thought so before the war.  Why then,  is it not justification for taking action against Iran now?  If it was a threat then why is it not a threat now?  All the liberals can say is that the threat from Iraq it was made up and Bush lied, etc, etc.  Well now we have a bunch of certifiable lunatics in Iran(the crazy mullahs), who say they are building a nuke and they will destroy the west and Israel and the appeasing liberals don't have the moral integrity to do anything about it.  All they can do is lie and try to claim that Bush is starting another war.  What's up with this bunch of progressive liars?  Don't they see how that position shows how weak we are as a nation and how it encourages our enemies to continue to fight harder and kill more of our soldiers?  The liberals have maneuvered themselves into a corner where the only thing they can do is raise a flag of surrender and appease our enemies.  How is that moral?  Are the liberals so blind that they can swallow this camel of defeat and choke on the gnat of victory?


These are just a few questions that I have for the retarded anti-war liberal democrats that claim they have all the solutions to the current crises.  "Lets Just lose."  "Let just quit."  "We can't win."  And my all time favorite, "there is no military solution to the problem."  Well let me tell you something my liberal enemies, the terrorists are not as stupid as you are.  They are using terrorist military and political tactics to defeat us.  They are not quitters like the democrats.  What a bunch of crybabies these liberal losers are.  They are a disgrace to our national heritage.  Every time the democrats pull off one of their political stunts it is another big morale boost for the terrorists and those countries that still support them.   


To a reasonable person it should be obvious that if this war can be lost militarily then it can be won as well.  Every battle ever fought could either be won or lost.  It depended on the will and effort put into it.  There is no battle in our history that was ever won easily.  The cost of victory is always high.  In most major battles the outcome has hung in the balance.  Often it was the leadership of just one person that made the difference and tipped the scales in favor of victory.  It is unlikely that a team in any sport, that takes the field of endeavor believing they will lose, will win the contest.  If you do not fight with all your heart, believing you will be victorious you will not win.  It is so fundamental that I shouldn't even have to explain it.  Every High School football coach knows the basics of the psychology of victory.  But we are dealing with the politically retarded liberals here who seem to be unable to learn.  Defeatism is such an entrenched mentality in liberals today that the concept of victory has been eradicated from their vocabulary.  


This is not the right stuff that Washington showed at the battle of Yorktown.  This is not the right stuff that won at Gettysburg and preserved the Union.  This is not the right stuff that won the day at Normandy or Iwo Jima or the Battle of the Bulge or the Philippines or even the disastrous Italian campaign.  I could go on and on but the retarded liberals refuse to learn from our history.  The pervading defeatist mentality of the anti-war liberals is un-American.  Losing and leaving Iraq will be the greatest mistake ever made in our nation's history.  Millions will die and if we survive, history will look back in and wonder and amazement at how an entire generation of Americans could be so short-sighted and blind.  Yes, sacrifices must be made and more American soldiers will die but I would rather lose 10,000 now than a million in 5 or 10 years from now.  This war is not going away so why don't we go ahead and win it now while we have the army there to do it with.  Politicians always leave us with another war to fight.  Why don't we fight it now while we have the troops and the enemy is engaged.  If they need more troops then send more.  If we need a bigger army then create one.  Whatever it takes to win this war is what we need to do.  No matter what the cost.  The cost now will be smaller than if we procrastinate and believe the lie that it will just go way.  The cost of victory now is much smaller then the cost of defeat.



I am not a retarded anti-war, liberal, defeatist democrat and I refuse to surrender my country to this insanity.
