Should Bush and Blair be tried for war crimes?

[Kirkland Laing]

Missy why don't you just go ahead and wage jihad already I mean for fucks sake these bastards sneak attack us and you just say "oh well we had it coming let's just ignore that murderous attack on innocent civilians" (I know Kirkland thinks that)

You don't ignore it but you don't make the situation worse by sending more military into more Muslim countries, particularly countries that had nothing to do with any terrorist attack.

Exactly. The US made a stupid mistake in invading both Afghanistan and Iraq imo. They are now in so deep in Afghanistan that they are stuck there indefinitely. Unless they try to make their excuses like in Iraq, which would look very poor. The terrorists were Saudi Arabian and plans were hatched in Germany. Afghanistan and Iraq are appear to be excuses to extend influence in the region. There are obviously only a few terrorists possibly in Afghanistan and none of them have played any role in Iraq. Meanwhile, America has made itself world enemy number 1 in the eyes of many. They have lost all sense of sympathy now.

I do not condone acts of war but it is my belief that America had a justified war against Iraq.

Iraq was celebrating upon the news that the two towers went down. There had been news that Iraq (particularly saddam) had a part in that terrorism.

If you have a family member who had been a victim in that tragedy, you would easily agree with me.

Attacking Iraq was symbolic and it gave a clear signal to the world that America will do whatever it can to stop all these terrorists.

We all know Saddam was financing those terrorists and personally, I believe that Bush and Blair should not be tried for protecting their citizens from terrorists.

I know how hard it is to live with Muslim terrorists. I grew up in a place where bombings is a common occurrence precisely because I grew up near a Muslim community ( thankfully my parents decided to leave that place). NOt to be racist here, I grew up with the thinking that most Muslims are terrorists and I can't take that belief away. Mindanao ( the place where I was born) is still plagued with bombings and massacres.

I thank Bush and Blair for having that guts to fight these Muslim terrorists. The current president of the Philippines is afraid of them that's why they are still thriving in my country.

Currently,if you are not familiar with the news in the Philippines, there were 30 journalists heinously massacred by a warlord/group of warlords in Mindanao. Guess who are those warlords and how their faiths are connected to those terrorists I mentioned!

These terrorists cry foul when they are attacked and I find it funny that they call their wars as "HOLY" when they kill innocent people.

Just thinking out loud.

rubbish. No evidence at all.
lots of people celebrated. Maybe the US should have invaded every country where extremists were on the tv ranting.

1st. Why would I? Not all the relatives of 9/11 did.

2nd. On what grounds was it ok for the US to attack? Because Saddam smiled about it OR he was a convenient scapegoat for the US to flex its muscle?

We all know Saddam was financing those terrorists and personally, I believe that Bush and Blair should not be tried for protecting their citizens from terrorists.

Saddam or the people of Iraq did not fly any planes in to any tower.
The majority were Saudi! There is no way the US was going to invade Saudi!

This is what happens when you don't keep a grip on things in your own country. These people didn't spring from nowhere. It should have been dealt with before it got to this stage.
