IcePrincessKRS Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 [quote name='catholicinsd' post='1145738' date='Dec 19 2006, 08:38 PM'] CC, they are all reason why those who do support this war should sign up. They are all important reasons, but 7 is the most important. [/quote] I could just as easily say that since we have a shortage of priests everyone who supports priests should go apply to seminaries. Not everyone is meant to be a priest, likewise not everyone is meant to be a soldier. Its not that we would not be willing, its that we aren't called to that vocation, it might be physical challenges we face (unable to meet their physical fitness requirements, poor health, etc.), it might be other obligations--like children that we can't just abandon to join a cause. Bottom line: not everyone who supports the war is ABLE to sign up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This only makes it worse. 3) America needs to focus on the Afghani people, who also over-through a dictatorship, recently. And that was much worse then Saddam's regime 4) The situtation in Darfur is and was much worse 5) The Iraqi's will never learn leadership or self-denfense, as long as we are there. 6) We went there on a lie. 7) Sense Bush has been president there has more talk the draft since in 1970's [/quote] 1. By whose terms? It fits the definition of a just war per the CCC? Or are you Pope now? 2. Virginia is in shambles? Didn't know that ...don't see what is has to do with the discussion either. 3. So now America as a whole is incompetent and can only do one thing at a time? Try talking to someone who has BEEN in Afghanistan. It was not a dictatorship, it was a theocracy. 4. So we should invade Sudan? As I recall, the UN committed 17,300 troops to take care of that. Time for them to get off their french duffs and do it. We are busy at the moment. 5. Prove it. 6. Prove it. Oh. Yer gonna talk about WMDs and ignore the other 11 points on why we are there. Ok then from KofCs post: Found: 1.77 metric tons of enriched uranium Found: 1,500 gallons of chemical weapons Found: Roadside bomb loaded with sarin gas Found: 1,000 radioactive materials--ideal for radioactive dirty bombs Found: 17 chemical warheads--some containing cyclosarin 7.

In such cases the the Nation fighting both sides looses. 4) Well, as we can see nothing is happening in that region. And the USA, instead of helping the Genocide of Christians by Muslims in that region choose to invade Iraq. 5) Right now we're doing the job of the Iraqi Army and Police. As long as we're there, they know they don't have to take responsiblilty 6) Well, I am man enough to give you two that. However, Bush said Iraq had WMD's. 7) Similiar messages are coming from the Joint Chiefs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] To add on to this, if we were to go there, we'd just be accused of more things. Never will Americas actions please the world. We go and we're accused of veiled motives. We don't go and we're accused of not caring. It doesn't matter what we do, someone is going to hate us for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
