The people in Iraq won't be saved with your help, if a govermet or a dictator needs to be thrown, it's own people have to be the ones to do it! And to protect his own... Wow, a few thousand die on your ground for the first time in, what, 150 years, and suddenly you need protection and wipe all arabs off of this planet is how you're gonna get it? I come from a country that survived two world wars, and one additional war, on it's own ground. Maybe you need to see one war up close, just to know that you don't want it. There is no just cause for a war. There never was, there never will be. Get some freakin perspective...
