short and sweet, they made the first move with 911. we reacted, who woldnt? sure we dont need to go to war with every country that we have a disagreement with, but when they take action, we must do the same or take the risk of being bullied on. as for desert storm, that was some time ago and i was still to you to really have an opinion on that. only thing i can say about it is that a friend of my uncles said that we had to go to war then because they wouldnt sell us their oil. i honestly dont remember what all happened to start desert storm, but i dont think it was because they did not want to sell their oil. if it was however, then i would say we were in the wrong there and i told him so. ill not go and read some history on it, instead ill wait til someone on here gives me the correct info. to reinnerate, when someone pushes us, we must take action against them even if it leads us down a road we would rather not travel. if something like another country not wanting to sell us land, oil, foods, etc etc, then it is their right even if their doing it out of spite. just my opinion on this matter, not all of us will agree and we should be able to accept everyones opinion.
