Decision is yours, I will help. Review on War on Iraq: Case For 'Yes'

Ooohhh....Very tense moment for me as I am writing review on a very critical topic. I am very late on this but I think, better late than never. It has taken a lot of time to write this review as everybody knows that this is a very thought provoking topic.

I have read many reviews and comments on them regarding this. Some friends agree with Hon’ able Mr Bush (Here some people might be surprised, why I am calling Hon’ able? My point on that is, whatever he is, he is still a leader of a superpower and should be given due respect) and some friends do not. Here are my views on this topic, which will differ from many. I would be very happy for any comments.

Objective of the WAR:

Can anybody define very clearly the objective of WAR against IRAQ lead by US / UK? I think it is very difficult because different people perceive it differently. I will try my level best to define it.

“Iraq should destroy Weapons of mass destruction within specified time, otherwise face military action.” I think that this was the statement made by US again and again. Please correct me if I am wrong. Also, I am not pointing the underlying intentions of US (if there is / was any), as I will come to that later.

Most of the people did agree till this point. Some did not still agree on this. Why Iraq should disarm? Many other countries do have the same kind of weapons, then why Iraq should disarm? The reason given by US supporters is “Iraq is a threat to whole world as it will use these weapons against the world including Iraqis.” Ooohhh…now this is very difficult to verify. Few Questions in the mind:

1.Were these terrorists threat to US / UK in specific?

2.If yes, then why threats were US / UK Specific?

3.If these threats were to whole the world then why other countries like China, France, Germany, Russia and many others did not see like this. Does this mean that these countries do not have any intelligence that can see threat against their country? Now one might say that these countries were also seeing Iraq’s WMD’s as threat to their country or whole world and that is why they were supporting the UN’s action of disarming Iraq. Ok, I agree on this also. But I ask another question now. Why US were in hurry? Was Strom coming to US first? But please tell me Why US first?

4.Another question. If these WMD’s or some other weapons were to be used against Iraqis and have been used (as some people say), then what these people were doing when thousands of students were killed in China? Perhaps those were not human beings? Or any other reason? Please speak out loudly. I want to listen from the US Supporters. Ok, if we agree that US objective was also to save Iraqis from Saddam, doesn’t this mean US is doing some kind of Charity? Wow ! what a charity ! Spending billions of dollars for the charity. May god bless them. Would there be any takers of such charity from US / UK? Why US does not offer such charity to Palestine’s or many other people in the world? I agree US is helping in sorting the matter but not declaring WAR. Don’t my friends agree that there was something else and not charity?

Now if we look at the answers to the above questions, we can verify the objective written above. I am sure this objective is not very well defined and has got many other words / statements / desires hidden. I would appreciate if US supporters write the objective in their own words and share with other friends.

All right friends, I agree at this point, the objective is as stated above and said all the time by US.

Another objective here linked to the above is to kill Saddam, his family and his army because he is killing his own people. He is doing all sorts of things that are not perceived good by US. Fair Enough, Kill him. I may tend to agree with my friends, however I will come back to this point later.

How to achieve:

Now the question is how to achieve it. Rightly, UN was involved. UN inspectors were sent. They did their best to achieve their aim. They gave their report to UN. US / UK did not agree with other members of UN and took military action. Few Questions again:

1.Why did not US obey UN?

2.Does UN have any importance in this world?

3.If other countries do not obey UN Law, what will happen? What will US do?

4.Is UN not made for the countries like US / UK?

5.Why not dissolve UN when it does not have any influence on big countries and these are the countries ruling this world?

I would appreciate if US supporters answer these questions and share with friends.

Now everybody knows what efforts were made to achieve the objective. Did they achieve their objective?

Now after all that, did US achieve it objective? Is Saddam Killed? Is there no more threat to world / US and UK specifically first? If the objective is not achieved, what next then? What is future plan of US? Which country will be next? Ohhh….they say the country that will harbor terrorist? And please tell me, who will decide that which country is harboring terrorist? Will UN be involved or will it be a mere spectator? Any answers?

This was my opinion on this topic(I hope you can make it). Thanks a lot for your patience for reading this.
