Long War, so what?

Unsuprisingly, the media is creating such a big deal over the fact that this war might last longer than expected. And what more, they are blaming it on american military planners. This cannot be justified.
 
Well, I guess a quick war would have been good for Blair. But as I see it, Britisih Public opinion has pretty much turned around since the start of this war. The friendly fire incidents may though ruin this.
 
Don't worry about Tony, he is doing pretty well. And contrary to popular belief, many of us here do support war. Recent polls have shown 88% in favour of keeping british troops on the gulf
 
Actually this war is playing between Saddam and Bush only and the innocent people are forced to suffer .Bush is repeating the same thing that his father had done .This is true that Saddam might have done some crimes or something like that which he should have never done but the idea of bush of eradicting his rule from Iraq is just a stupid thing.Which governement should rule in a country..is a decision of that country itself not from an outer one.Atleast America should have taken United Nation in his confidence but he could not.I am not in favour of war but ..This is also true that the consequences will be the same of this war as that of Afganistan attack by America for Laden..Nothing will happen to this too and this war will also stop one day..and what will america get...........blood of innocent people. shuttered life of people.!!!!

Oh, so you are saying that the US didn't try to take the UN into confidence? We spent a lot of time there, we got resolution 1441 passed. Unfortunately, France was opposed to tougher measures and inspections. Without the direct threat of force, it is impossible to make Saddam actually disarm. So unfortunately, France would be the reason for the absolute failure of the UN.

And by the way, are you referring to the same innocent people that have toiled under Saddam's oppressive rule for 20 years? Iraq is such a rich nation full of such rich oil resources. Compare Kuwait with Iraq. Kuwait is less rich than Iraq in terms of oil, but you can see the development and progress they have been made, even under the constant threat of WMD from Saddam. Even Kuwait's people are prosperous. Compare them to the Iraqi people, who should have been living in one of the most developed Middle-East nation if Saddam wasn't there.
