Anybody want to help me educate this guy? (vanity)

It's a guy whining about the war and wanting a good, solid reason why we must go to war. Well, I figured this might be a good oppurtunity for an online freep (to show this guy that not everyone is as naive as he is). Anybody wanna help me in answering this guy's question?

Let him know that the war draws closer to home soil. And tell the asshat to thank you for giving him information that he will never hear from the MSM.

"Thirty-six hours before he was killed by U.S. forces, Taliban Commander Mullah Dadullah said he was training American and British citizens to carry out suicide missions in their home countries..."

Dead Taliban Leader Was Training U.S. Recruits

This is always fun, but I don’t have much time.

What I like to do is ask them what would justify open warfare? Usually they will answer with something easy like “if we were attacked.” I then bring up that Saddam fired anti-aircraft missiles at American and allied warplanes over the no fly zone 100’s of times. Does that constitute an attack on the US?

Then there is always the WMD thing. Not only have we found 500 tons of uranium in Iraq, but sarin and mustard as well. We aren’t the only ones either. The Polish have found sarin. Sarin and mustard shells proven to be from stockpiles Saddam claimed to have destroyed were also used on our troops. Every weapons inspector for the UN has said that Saddam had a weapons program to counter Iran’s. Duelfer and now Tenet have both stated that Saddam was seeking a nuclear option.

The US gets less than 1% of its oil from Iraq so that is not a stable argument.

Saddam also supported terrorist organizations that had openly declared war on the US (ie Hamas).

This Thursday (the 17th) is the anniversary of the USS Stark. Look it up ... that will be a good one.

If you want some more I’d be happy to send you an email with links to proof.

Does he have kids?

Ask him for a pic of his little boy or girl.

Turn it around so he can see it, and say, “Is that good enough for you?”

He won’t get it. I guarantee that.

Most Americans don’t.

I’m new at this so forgive if I do this wrong but you might have him review the original authorization approved by congress. Many forget that in that document, the WMD’s were listed as merely the forth reason for the ouster of Saddam.
Genocide of his own people was listed before WMD’s and imo should be reason enough, unless this person feels Genocide is ok.

He and the people defending him are more of those “The war’s for oil” retards...and we all know how stubborn those nitwits are. He could care less what Congress said (I’ve already informed his peanut brain that it is Congress, not the Useless Nitwits, that the President needs authorization from).
