Why do we keep going into mid-east countries and blow them up? Same old story. "today we think might have killed the major leader of bla bla bla place. It always turns out that the leader is still running around. We have got to stop being so precautious.

The goal is to take them out of power, to get them out of a position to be a threat. For example, the goal to depose Saddam was successful, regardless of whether or not he survives, he still currently has no real influence in the area.

Unfortunately, this is not the case when attacking a terrorist network...as in Osama's case. You can't really lump the war against Al Queda, with the war in Iraq, as it's like apples and oranges...two completely different types of war. We did succeed in cutting a great deal of Osama's power and influence, but we still aim to eliminate it completely...

The bottom line is that regimes (whether Islamic militant, or nutsy North Korean) that pose a threat to us and/or our interests, will continue to be "blown up" if they continue being threats to our way of life....

Another reason the USA becomes involved in these situations is because national leader of or country officials ask the US for help. And we will never turn away our assistance...although some cases it should be. And should have been, but nonetheless, this nation was established to lead by example and so we will.

We go and free countries because it is the right thing to do. Besides, we broke away from a tyrant government, so we go and help other countries do the same. Can't save all of the countires, but we try to help the majority. Just because the middle east is ran by tyrants doesn't mean we hate the people, just the tyrants that run the middle east.

==========================================

Because someone had to do it and if we didn't no one else would have. If you notice for now our boys are taking the heat. Hasn't been a whole lot of terrorisim lately. But there will be then we will follow that trail. None of us here like it and we are not all in agreement on who started it, But everyone of us is commited to stopping it and eliminating the root cause once we find it where ever it is
