The U.S. War in Iraq

Paper Summary:

The writer reveals that nearly four years after the invasion of Iraq, with nearly 3,000 American casualties and over $380 billion having been spent, no weapons of mass destruction have been found and no evidence of any nuclear program has been found. The writer stresses that we are not any safer now than we were in 2001 after 9/11. The writer strongly contends that this war is wrong, expensive and too many soldiers and innocent civilians have been killed. The writer believes that it is time for Bush to admit that leaving Iraq is the only sensible answer.

From the Paper:

"To the hard-core right-wing son of a life-long Republican who waves a flag on the Fourth of July but is thoroughly uninitiated in matters of American foreign policy, there a war going on in Iraq and that's about all that matters. "The world is better off without Saddam Hussein," this person says, parroting President George Bush. "I support the president and our troops," he tells anyone who asks for his view. His car is American made, he hates unions, he despises rap music and he rages against immigrants who come into America with no "green card.""
