I'd like to point out that if any country sends in troops and military to "Free its people from the current Govenment" is called a coup d'etat.
Although its dictionary definition is
coup d'é·tat ( P ) Pronunciation Key (k d-tä)
n. pl. coups d'état (k) or coup d'états (d-täz)
The sudden overthrow of a government by a usually small group of persons in or previously in positions of authority.
This is illegal for other countries to do. Samala (SP) is a sovran state of the United States of America. When Clinton sent troops over it was not an act of war but to protect agenst a Civil war or a coup d'etat.
Iraq is not a sovran state of the USA non are it's residents. To sent military forces into another country to FREE it's citizen from the current govenment is no worse then a local group of Terroriest trying to overthrow the govenment. Bush and his military machine performed a coup d'etat on a another non-sovran state. THAT is illegal on so many signed documents and peace treadies that the entire world's govenments signed that now make up the UN.
What Bush did was illegal on so many levels it's not funny. If anything he should be tried as a war criminal.

warranto | So a reason for going to war was to free the Iraqi people. Interesting. Though I would have to see some proof to evaluate that statement. Oh, and don't bother quoting what you did before, because as Javaxcx and I have shown, those aren't reasons for going to war, but rather a side effect of it.
|
Repercussion, the Freedom of Iraqis is not an in-direct affect.
|
And what does that have to do with my statement of wanting proof that the reason for going to war was so that the citezens of Iraq would be freed? I also never once mentioned the word "in-direct effect", I said side effect. These is a difference there. An In-direct effect would be one that occured where it was related to, but not as a result of the actions taken. An imaginary example would be, Because of the war on Iraq, the son of a freed citezen grows up to discover Cold-Fusion. It could of only happened because of the war, but was not a result of the war. A side effect on the other hand, is an expected result of an action taken. The next time you watch a comercial for a new type of medicine, listen to it. What phrase is uttered when they state things that could happen to you if you take it. That's right, "side effects may include..." They're expected to occure because of the action taken.
In this case, the "War on Terrorism" (note not 'War to free Iraq') is to remove Saddam from power. A side effect (as it was not the initial reason for going to war [WMD's and terrorism were]) of this is that the Iraqi people will be free from Saddam.
|
If you even read the definition of repercussion you would know what in-direct effect was.
And the operation for Iraq was called Operation Iraqi freedom. If you paid any attention at all you would know this. they dubbed it this before we ever invaded.
And no it is not a side effect. It is a reason. Our reason was that we can liberate the Iraqi people if we invade.
It is a reason for the invasion and an accomplishment of the invasion.

Nodbugger, what you quoted Bush saying was everything that would happen as a RESULT of the war. NOT ONCE did he say, "We are going to invade Iraq to free it's people!"
-his regime has already used weapons of mass destruction against Iraq's neighbors and against Iraq's people.
No reason for war stated...
-Many Iraqis can hear me tonight in a translated radio broadcast, and I have a message for them: If we must begin a military campaign, it will be directed against the lawless men who rule your country and not against you.
Nothing stated here about freeing the people as a reason for war, just that the peopel won't be targets..
-As our coalition takes away their power, we will deliver the food and medicine you need. We will tear down the apparatus of terror and we will help you to build a new Iraq that is prosperous and free.
'During the war, we will help you', no reason for going to war stated here either.
-In free Iraq there will be no more wars of aggression against your neighbors, no more poison factories, no more executions of dissidents, no more torture chambers and rape rooms.
Here he states what will happen after the war, not the reason for going to war.
-The tyrant will soon be gone. The day of your liberation is near.
'When Saddam is gone, and you'll be free' once again, not a statement for a reason of going to war, just a statement of what will happen as a result.
-It is too late for Saddam Hussein to remain in power. It is not too late for the Iraq military to act with honor and protect your country, by permitting the peaceful entry of coalition forces to eliminate weapons of mass destruction. Our forces will give Iraqi military units clear instructions on actions they can take to avoid being attack and destroyed.
Nothing here as well. All he says is that Saddam will be removed.
-Unlike Saddam Hussein, we believe the Iraqi people are deserving and capable of human liberty, and when the dictator has departed, they can set an example to all the Middle East of a vital and peaceful and self-governing nation.
Once again, what will happen after the war is over. Nothing stated as a reason for going to war.
-The United States with other countries will work to advance liberty and peace in that region. Our goal will not be achieved overnight, but it can come over time. The power and appeal of human liberty is felt in every life and every land, and the greatest power of freedom is to overcome hatred and violence, and turn the creative gifts of men and women to the pursuits of peace. That is the future we choose.
This one would be the closest, but not quite. Oddly enough he doesn't specify the Iraqi people being saved, but rather "peace in that region". But considering it's a "War on Terrorism", all that could stand for is to get rid of all the terrorists "in that region"
-Free nations have a duty to defend our people by uniting against the violent, and tonight, as we have done before, America and our allies accept that responsibility.
Notice the "Our People"? Not once is it stated that Iraqi people are the reason, but rather to protect "Our People"

Nodbugger you're the idiot..
I am not posting opinion I am posting what coup d'etat.
You yourself said "The war was about free the people" Did you even look at the definition you stupid ass.
:The sudden overthrow of a government:
Does Saddam still control Iraq's govenment? No.
Is Saddam still considered in the govenment? No.
What happen to Saddam to lose his govenement? He was overthrow by the use of Military Force.
Who controlled that military force? President and Commander and Chief of the United States of America.
Who is the President and Commander and Chief of the United States of America? George W. Bush.
As commander of a military force under current USA military code of conduct. Is said Commander responsible for any actions taken by anyone under his command? Yes
Did the United States of America military force oversee or partake the military actions of Iraq on Iraq soil? Yes
Was the outcome of the military task the result of Loss of current Govenment? Yes
Was the loss of Current Govenment requested by the citizen of Iraq though proper channels or requested to the UN for assistance? No.
hmmm.... Sounds like a coup d'etat and guess what - That's illegal. Ask any military personal over in Iraq. Is it your duty to perform your action as directed by your commanding officer? They will say "YES"
Since the Commanding officer takes resposibility of the actions of his/her soldgers it leads back to Bush... HE is telling the troops to overthrow the Iraq govenment HE is responsible HE is a war ciminal.
Plain and simple - if you think otherwise you're a moron.

Ah, ok, so your right about Javaxcx meaning indirect. It doesn't mean anything, as I SPECIFIED side-effect.
Interesting how "Iraqi Freedom" Has everything to do with Weapons of Mass Destruction and Terrorist ties. I'd think "Iraqi Freedom" would mean simply freeing a people..."
Well, there's one person who passed among the top of his class in the school of Blind-Follower.
As for your retort to Senc, it's complete garbage. If Hitler came into Pwer after the UN was formed, I'm sure the UN would have resolved that it was ok for the war to occur, if not, REGARDLESS OF THE REASON, it would still be illegal to go to war.
Here is a question for you: A starving Child steals a loaf of bread to feed his equally starving family. Was it illegal for him to steal it or not?

Iraqi Freedom was the name of the operation. As operation Over lord d-day and Operation Desert Storm was the Gulf War.
Bush did not name it. The military named it. I have 35 t-shirts my dad and other friends in Iraq bought there that say Operation Iraq Freedom on them.
How in any way am I a blind follower? Who Am I following blindly? Saddam was an asshole. If any other president was in charge and did the same thing as Bush I would support that decision.
I do not blindly follow people.
Why would they vote for it? In 1933 if the UN was around Hitler hadn't done anything wrong yet. Fast Forward to 1939 and so far, what we know about, has has done exactly what Saddam has done. And that was enough to start a war.
After that we found out he murdered 12 million people.
If you knew were in charge in 1933 and you knew what Hitler was going to do would you pre-emptively attack him?
Now after getting rid of Saddam we no longer have to wonder what he may do. The most he can do now is walk 4 week in any direction.
And yes, stealing is stealing. how ever we did not break any law.

If it was not a reason...why was it mentioned so many times.
And for a big 'duh factor' here, in order for us the Free Iraq we had to invade. You could not flip that around. Liberation is a product of invasion. How ever our reason for invasion was the product of liberation.
It goes back to my cake analogy.
For you to get a cake you need to put ingredients together. You cannot flip it around. So in order to a get a cake you need to mix the ingredients. your reason for mixing the ingredients was to form a cake.

hmm.. now you've confused me. I though you were saying that the name was designed so because the purpose of the war was to free Iraq. So using that logic, "Operation Overlord" was an operation to... Over the Lord? Thats the only reason I could think of for you to make the connection between the two... Here's a hint: the name of the operation does not automatically mean it's the purpose of the Operation.
Your right, in 1933 when Hitler was doing whatever, noone would have done anything. Infact, no one DID anything. Using the past "if you knew" doesn't hold any strength in any sort of arguement. But if you want to... Why didn't Bush go to war as soon as he came to office? I mean, Saddam had already been in power for a while, and everyone knew the stuff he had done. Infact, why didn't Bush Sr do something about it seeing as he was mere miles from his front door?
Infact, if you want to argue semantics about Hitler, the US sat back and WATCHED Hitler murder thousands, only entering the war when Japan attacked, and Germany declared war on the US as a result of the two countries being allies. Millions of people dead, and the United States of America did absolutely nothing about it, even though they knew what was going on...
stealing is stealing, and yes that means the thief broke the law. I'm glad you can see that. It's unfortunate however that you fail to see how it connects to the topic at hand. The UN had stated that the US could not enter Iraq (Bush even recognized this in one of his speaches [Javaxcx has it, perhaps he can enlighten you to it's content]), yes the chose to do so, Violating the UN's desicion... the law was broken right then and there, regardless of the "noble" and "Virtuous" reasons Bush had.
Edit: as it's a short retort to what you just posted, I'll do this rather than make a new post. Since when did "outcome" automatically mean "reason" as you seem to suggest by your cake analogy? Just because 'freedom' was an outcome doesn't mean it was the reason for going in. As for the cake analogy, it's flawed in regards to this anyways. Look at it like this:
I'm assuming cake=freedom here.
Try baking a cake by puting a cake in first.. it doesn't work does it? Freedom was an outcome of the war (a side effect, but an outcome). It wasn't a reason for the war though, for the reasons I've given many times over.

Nodbugger | 'An often indirect effect, influence, or result that is produced by an event or action.'
The Liberation of the Iraqi people was not an indirect effect. It was not an influence. It was produced by an event or action.
|
Yeah, too bad that is exactly what a repercussion is. And you've solidly disproven yourself and acknowlegded my point. The reason to go to war, as stated by your President, was to disarm Iraq. The REPERCUSSION (side-effect, indirect action, consequence, what have you!) of that disarmiment IS THAT IRAQ'S PEOPLE ARE FREE FROM SADDAM'S TYRANNY. You seem to be forgetting, and often misunderstanding, that your president did NOT say "we are going to Iraq to free the people". My God, he doesn't even infer that! Why is this so hard for you to grasp!?
Quote: | Our goal was to free the Iraqi people and get rid of Saddam. In order to do that we must invade.
|
A goal and a reason are not the same thing.
Goal
n. The final purpose or aim; the end to which a design tends, or which a person aims to reach or attain.
reason
n.
The basis or motive for an action, decision, or conviction.
A declaration made to explain or justify action, decision, or conviction
Your goal in school might be to get a high mark. That is not your reason you're going to school. Your reason might be any number of things: complete school, get a good job, etc.
Stop arguing with words you don't even know how to use.
Quote: | For every action their is an equal and opposite reaction.
We invade they got liberated. One of our reasons for invasion was for the goal of liberation to be accomplished.
|
THAT IS A REPERCUSSION.
Cause: Invade Iraq on pretense of disarmament.
Effect: No weapons (at all, really)
No Saddam
Iraqi Freedom
That does NOT equate to "liberation = reason". You are perverting the English language.
Quote: | I do not care what 'ETYMOLOGY' says. I am saying our goal in Iraq was to Get rid of Saddam and Liberate Iraqis.
|
Etymology tells you how to use language. Something you obviously have difficulty with. YOU yourself can have goals of liberating Iraq, but they are not reasons to go to Iraq. Your President said that the weapons were the reason, not the people.
Quote: | I also do not care what the charter says. As I have said before. A Security Resolution totally over rides everything else. a Vote is not necessary to enact on a Resolution. We just wanted to tell them our idea and we will do it if they vote or not.
|
Sorry friend, the law says otherwise. Stop ignoring the link to the Charter I provided. It will clarify everything for you.
Quote: | The UN failed to do their job. So we did it for them.
|
You are not authorized by the laws you agreed to invade Iraq. The charter clarifies this, and so does this document I'm reading. It's pretty good.
Quote: | In no way was it illegal.

I don't need to protest Saddam anymore. It is unequivocally agreed by a large majority (including myself) that Saddam was evil.

warranto | hmm.. now you've confused me. I though you were saying that the name was designed so because the purpose of the war was to free Iraq. So using that logic, "Operation Overlord" was an operation to... Over the Lord? Thats the only reason I could think of for you to make the connection between the two... Here's a hint: the name of the operation does not automatically mean it's the purpose of the Operation.
Your right, in 1933 when Hitler was doing whatever, noone would have done anything. Infact, no one DID anything. Using the past "if you knew" doesn't hold any strength in any sort of arguement. But if you want to... Why didn't Bush go to war as soon as he came to office? I mean, Saddam had already been in power for a while, and everyone knew the stuff he had done. Infact, why didn't Bush Sr do something about it seeing as he was mere miles from his front door?
Infact, if you want to argue semantics about Hitler, the US sat back and WATCHED Hitler murder thousands, only entering the war when Japan attacked, and Germany declared war on the US as a result of the two countries being allies. Millions of people dead, and the United States of America did absolutely nothing about it, even though they knew what was going on...
stealing is stealing, and yes that means the thief broke the law. I'm glad you can see that. It's unfortunate however that you fail to see how it connects to the topic at hand. The UN had stated that the US could not enter Iraq (Bush even recognized this in one of his speaches [Javaxcx has it, perhaps he can enlighten you to it's content]), yes the chose to do so, Violating the UN's desicion... the law was broken right then and there, regardless of the "noble" and "Virtuous" reasons Bush had.
|
Overlord was later dropped.
But yes, the Operation names do infer what the Operation is about.
Desert Storm- Invade Kuwait
Desert Shield- Protect Kuwait
Desert Fox- Attack Iraq Stealthily
Iraq Freedom- Free Iraqis.
Overlord- Dominance over everyone
Do you seriously think they would name it that if it had nothing to do with freeing Iraqis?
Actually it does hold an Argument, Bill Oreilly proved this with Michael Moore. MM admitted he would pre-emptively attack Hitler knowing what he would do. We don't know what Saddam will do, why take the chance?
Bush Jr didn't do anything because starting a war you first week in office isn't the best thing to start a presidency on.
Bush Sr didn't do it because the UN said no. Remember that High Way of Death thing? American helicopters decimated what was left of the Iraqi military. The attack took place inside Iraq.
Actually no. The US did not sit back. Without US supplies, planes, vehicles, gasoline. ammunition...the allies would not have lasted. The Battle of Britain would have been lost if America did not produce almost all of Britain's fighters. We originally developed the P-51 mustang for the British.
Besides we entered in 1942. Only two years after Hitler invaded Europe. Were were fighting Japan within weeks of Pearl Harbor. And it took Allied forces 3 more years to develop Operation Over Lord.
We did not just sit by and do nothing.
And allied soldier knew about the concentration camps until we actually found them.
The UN never voted.

Nodbugger | 'An often indirect effect, influence, or result that is produced by an event or action.'
The Liberation of the Iraqi people was not an indirect effect. It was not an influence. It was produced by an event or action.
|
Yeah, too bad that is exactly what a repercussion is. And you've solidly disproven yourself and acknowlegded my point. The reason to go to war, as stated by your President, was to disarm Iraq. The REPERCUSSION (side-effect, indirect action, consequence, what have you!) of that disarmiment IS THAT IRAQ'S PEOPLE ARE FREE FROM SADDAM'S TYRANNY. You seem to be forgetting, and often misunderstanding, that your president did NOT say "we are going to Iraq to free the people". My God, he doesn't even infer that! Why is this so hard for you to grasp!?
Quote: | Our goal was to free the Iraqi people and get rid of Saddam. In order to do that we must invade.
|
A goal and a reason are not the same thing.
Goal
n. The final purpose or aim; the end to which a design tends, or which a person aims to reach or attain.
reason
n.
The basis or motive for an action, decision, or conviction.
A declaration made to explain or justify action, decision, or conviction
Your goal in school might be to get a high mark. That is not your reason you're going to school. Your reason might be any number of things: complete school, get a good job, etc.
Stop arguing with words you don't even know how to use.
Quote: | For every action their is an equal and opposite reaction.
We invade they got liberated. One of our reasons for invasion was for the goal of liberation to be accomplished.
|
THAT IS A REPERCUSSION.
Cause: Invade Iraq on pretense of disarmament.
Effect: No weapons (at all, really)
No Saddam
Iraqi Freedom
That does NOT equate to "liberation = reason". You are perverting the English language.
Quote: | I do not care what 'ETYMOLOGY' says. I am saying our goal in Iraq was to Get rid of Saddam and Liberate Iraqis.
|
Etymology tells you how to use language. Something you obviously have difficulty with. YOU yourself can have goals of liberating Iraq, but they are not reasons to go to Iraq. Your President said that the weapons were the reason, not the people.
Quote: | I also do not care what the charter says. As I have said before. A Security Resolution totally over rides everything else. a Vote is not necessary to enact on a Resolution. We just wanted to tell them our idea and we will do it if they vote or not.
|
Sorry friend, the law says otherwise. Stop ignoring the link to the Charter I provided. It will clarify everything for you.
Quote: | The UN failed to do their job. So we did it for them.
|
You are not authorized by the laws you agreed to invade Iraq. The charter clarifies this, and so does this document I'm reading. It's pretty good.
Quote: | In no way was it illegal.
|
Yes it was. You're pertaining to your ignorance again, kid.
Quote: | Saddam was illegal. Saddam is the one you should be protesting. He is the war criminal.
|
I don't need to protest Saddam anymore. It is unequivocally agreed by a large majority (including myself) that Saddam was evil.
Quote: | Oh ya, Republican are so much More evil than murderous genocidal dictators.
|
Nope, there you go with your generalizations again. Crimson is republican, and I don't think she is evil.
|
You are so fucking retarded it isn't even funny.
I will say it for the last fucking time.
UN SECURITY RESOLUTIONS MAKE THE UN CHARTER VOID.
EVERYTHING YOU SAY IS COMPLETE AND UTTER SHIT, NOW REVERT TO MY CAKE ANALOGY.
