The Iraq War Was Wrong Blog

The world has many wrongs, and many wars, but there's only one wrong Iraq war.

The Main Reasons

Let's for those newcomers to this my our blog let's here's a quick refresher on some of the main reasons why The Iraq War Was Wrong. (Sorry this will be repetive for regular readership's)

Not meant to be a complete list (I'm sure I'm leaving out a few dozens). In no particular order:


  • Joe Wilson checked it out, and the names were wrong and the dates were wrong.
  • France didn't want it to occur.
  • France, which is our ally, didn't ally with us in doing it. (Which, how is that even is possible.)
  • The Baghdad museum was looted after it happened.
  • Bush "cut and run". (Remember?) Which is bad.
  • Because there was a Surge (i.e. the number of troops stationed there went from something like 120k to something like 140k). Which is bad.
  • There wasn't a second UN resolution after the first one (just the first one). Needed two.
  • "Shock and awe" is a horrible term and an evil approach to doing things. (Also, Iraqis weren't actually shocked or awed, which is bad.)
  • Hussein was a Sunni and everyone knows Sunnis can't physically cooperate/do anything with Shiites.
  • The Neocons wanted it to occur before it happened (PNAC had that website).
  • CIA agents were nearby when the statue came down.
  • There was a British journalist (forget his name) who killed himself.
  • They shot at journalists in a hotel.
  • Because of Manicheanism.
  • Deep-cover agent Valerie Plame's cover was exposed, which hurts us all (but also her).
  • There was a Rush To War.
  • The US was just going to plant WMDs anyway.
  • Bush only did it to please his father.
  • Tony Blair was Bush's poodle/lapdog.
  • It made The World hate us (i.e. France, Germany, Belgium).
  • Murtha was known as quote "a hawk" and he was not in favor of it (later).
  • On account of the blood and treasure (esp. the treasure).
  • It distracted us from fighting the real war on terror, which by statute is located in Afghanistan.
  • It played right into Osama's hands (exactly what he wanted).
  • It played right into Iran's hands (exactly what they wanted).
  • We didn't have a full, complete, foolproof plan for reconstructing the country into a social-democratic constitutional republic.
  • The purple fingers are such a joke and the election was not legitimate.
  • There was violence in Iraq after it happened (i.e. it didn't make there be no violence in Iraq).
  • Because Iraq had no WMDs (how can you attack a country that has no WMDs).
  • Because if we invaded there was a danger Iraq would use WMDs on our troops.
  • Because of the plastic turkey.
  • It just created more terrorists (just look at all the terrorists that have been created).
  • It didn't make us safer. We are totally less safe now (just look at how unsafe we now are).
  • It was a war Of Choice.
  • We only did it for Israel, at Israel's beckoning. To make Israel safe (just look at how safe Israel now is, they are sitting pretty).
  • Bush told reporters to "now watch this drive".
  • Bush rushed the vote for the war powers resolution.
  • Because of Catholic "Just War" Theory. It totally went against Catholic "Just War" Theory.
  • Because it's bad to be theocratic.
  • We only did it to steal their oil (just look at all the oil we now got from them for free).
  • We only did it to gain a foothold from which to attack Iran (just look at how much we've totally attacked Iran from it).
  • Bush only did it because he's a Bible-thumper and wanted to bring about Armageddon.
  • A former CIA director admitted Iraq war was "wrong".
  • They totally cherry-picked.
  • Iraq's government can't be legitimate without Sunnis.
  • It's bad that Ba'athists haven't been purged from Iraq's government.
  • On account of how Bush is mendacious.
  • Everyone knows Iraq should be split into three.
  • Iraq is on the Brink of a civil war.

"Battle for Haditha" is a film about the Haditha massacre and the lack of justice following the tragedy. Director Nick Broomfield will be touring the film in the US later this year. There is an ongoing debate on Twitter (@Battle4Haditha)and facebook (Battle for Haditha Group) ahead of the tour.
@patriot101 says "our troops in Haditha didn't kill anyone.The memory stick was formatted & changed to Ubaydai incident, blaming Marines"

Get involved and watch out for speaking dates.

Best wishes,

Nick

I'm trying to memorize this. Taken together, these coherent arguments don't leave any room for argument. Devastating. Why don't you teach a course on why the iraq war was wrong? This looks a lot like the short-hand notes of what a course would teach.

I dont remember if it was there was no yellow cake or if it was there was yellow cake but I definitely remember that yellow cake which was pertinent to the Iraq war being wrong.

Slighty off topic, but is any one going to go see that new movie about "Mexican" Americans called Muchacho, I think? Suppose to be pretty realistic.

Hey guys, hope this interests you....

I'm working on my senior thesis film at Chapman University. I'm very passionate about promoting peaceful alternatives to war, so my thesis features a very strong anti-war theme. Essentially, two neighbors recreate the battle of Iwo Jima as they fight over a property line. As the story unfolds, we realize that the us vs. them mentality often adopted by countries during times of war can lead to deadly consequences.

If it sounds like something that interests you please help support our cause! Check us out at http://www.indiegogo.com/Over-The-Line

Thanks!

"... the us vs. them mentality often adopted by countries during times of war can lead to deadly consequences." This is so true. I've often think that if waring nations appreciated their common interests, we might could see real ultimate peace.

Who is this guy? Is this a joke, or is this for real? It stands to reason that the Iraq War was a foolish endeavor, but to take what is being said here by this person seriously is amazing. France is our ally? Without some really putrid language to direct at the French, who cares if they wanted it to happen or not? The French DO NOT DICTATE AMERICAN FORIEGN POLICY. If they did, we would be speaking German or Japanese now. I don't know whom this person is, but learn 1) some grammar, and 2) some facts. And it was Valerie Plume, not Plame. The US were just going to plant WMD's anyway? Really? I guess from the quality of this post it's coming from someone who has never served, and will never put anything other than their putrid opinion on some random blog, but I have served, and deployed twice. To say that this is some convoluted drivel is putting this mildly. If you cannot come up with better reasons than this for not going into Iraq, you are doing a disservice to those who did. How about for the simple reason of not killing one another? Get a grip, get an education (if that's possible for you), and finally, move on to something that you might be able to speak with some type of expertise (like, dancing with the stars or something). Pathetic.

WMDs were found in Iraq, along with proof that Saddam was going to continue his WMD program regardless of the UN resolutions and inspectors.

Last I checked, the Al Qaeda muslim terrorists started this war on 9/11. Terrorists are bred, trained, indoctrinated, funded, and supported across the Middle East. They manufacture jihadists like god damned assembly line parts. This war ain’t over by a long shot.

Personally, I’d have neutron-bombed 3/4ths of the Middle East to zero population on 9/12. But. I’m a former Soldier, not a politician.
