It is justified if you just look past the here and now. Ten years from now, after the US leaves, Iraq will be a stable, prospering democracy, and it's people will for the first time have a say in how their country is run and a quality of life they could never have dreamed of under Sddam.

no it is not justified..the only reson we ewnt to war in the first place was for oil. and i think everyone knows that. This is wat war is all about, thorughout history form ww1 war was about natural resources liek oil. defiantely not justified

No...only an idiot would! Sorry, idiots...\n\nI think an even better question, one that gets right to the heart of the matter, as it were, is this:\n\nDOES THE U.S. GOVERNMENT TRUST YOU?

No, the truth does not always necessarily find you out, however, in this case it did. We ALL knew the danger the people of NO were being put in when they sent them to the dome.  Of course the president knew. It's just coming to light to the people of the United States? Should have listened to Kanye West if there was ever any doubt...

They could have given them whatever. That's what I would have done. How would the gov. know if the information was accurate.

The answer is YES! But it's past tense, they did deceive, but actually it's public record now, so they aren't deceiving any longer...\nhttp://politics.guardian.co.uk/foreignaffairs/story/0,11538,1542130,00.html\n\nBut the US does this sort of thing far more than any other country, and I'm sure they knew anyway, just not publicly.

I think it is our job as citizens of the USA to NOT trust any government official fully. We should all question the actions of our politicians and then if we agree, so be it. If we don't, then our voices should be heard.

I don't think anyone really knows for sure that is their intent.  But best guess and what everyone knows about the government would be that is probably their intent, yes.  All signs seem to be pointing that way.

Believe it or not, that was actually considered during the framing of the U.S. Constitution. Following the demise of the Articles of Confederation for having too weak of a central federal government, there was alot of argument that took place on this subject. Most notably, The Federalist Papers argued for this setup. The decision was made, I think wisely, that it was in the best interest of the US to have a strong central figure. The president should be the representative of the people an speak for the people. If you have two presidents, that authority is necessarily diminished.

You should not assume it... you should look at any sources provided by me. Also... you have the wonderful tool of "common sense" available to you to see if answers are reasonable or not.

No, letting the government to kill someone is never justifiable because they are never 100% correct.

The U.S. had quite a bit of money at one time. And as all big wigs with money and clout do, they feel the need to put their two cents in pretty much everywhere. The American government feels they are strong enough to handle anything. That is so untrue. They stick their noses in foreign business and try to correct it (helping to form a new government in Iraq) and all the while, totally forget about their own citizens. We still have homeless veterans, We still have hungry children, we still have an awful drug problem. But is America spending their dollars to help those folks? Of course not. It's rediculous. A man once said to some folks, "Clean up your own backyard before you come talking about mine." America should listen to that statement.
