Dear Posterity,


America has there leaders. They provide them with great structure some times, but at other times they put their people in grave danger. These leaders lead them to the Iraq war. During the flourish of war they have lost many citizens of which they can never bring back and spent wasteful dollars that need never be spent. The American soldiers see war as something only needed when it is extremely necessary, while the leaders are encouraging war under false pretences. Our leaders are simply just the most oil-thirsty of mankind.

AT the current time,
America is at war with Iraq. There have been many men killed during the 6 years we have been at war with Iraq and current Americans ask why the war was started? Bush must have been protecting us when he launched attacks against a country he himself stated had nothing to do with the terrorist attacks on September 11Th. But the death of three thousand American citizens needed retaliation. We will start the war on suspicion, but no evidence of, "weapons of mass destruction" and we wont take into account the trillion dollar oil reservations they plan to build in Iraq or the current oil reserves we wished to acquire from Iraq. We depend on oil like an alcoholic depends on his drink. We have the right to blast into their country and kill the majority of their people because they don't have weapons of mass destruction. We state that we are staying in this country to restore structure and government, to bring them to a democracy. My advice is not being taken into consideration of, a penny saved is a penny earned. We are not taking into account the predicted three thousand dollars this war is going to cost the country and its people. We are also not taking into account that we are spending this money in a country that is not appreciating our help towards democracy. Should we be worried about the near future or the future of posterity?

America was hit on September 11, 2001, with a terrorist attack that killed three thousand citizens. This attack would not be left unpunished and we declared war against Iraq. The leaders of our country told us we were going to war because Iraq had "weapons of mass destruction". Now we say weapons of mass destruction where? Not there. Evidence provided showed us that our leaders knew that there were no weapons that could hurt the United States, yet we still declared war. I being an honest man do not support this trickery. We enter their country and we don't find any weapons, but we stay there and decided that we will take over there form of government and change it to a democracy. Was this the effort to maintain a close watch on the oil production in Iraq or for the good of Iraq citizens? We will never know.


Now we pose the question of how long we are going to be there? Our leaders have set us up to stay in this war for many more years. Our upcoming leaders also believe in staying in the war. What are we going to win from this war? A country that despises us for destroying them and killing many of their people. What is the value of this war for America. My advice to you is to be always employed in something useful, cut off all unnecessary actions.
