İ respect that

İ appreciate your post sir. But the war wasn't carried out to 'liberate the İraqis' it was carried out to find and dismantle WMDs that were in İraq. They have never been found.

Of course we all hope for the best in İraq and Afghanistan --anyone with a conscience would. Those people have suffered a lot through wars and bad leadership.

But more transparency from USA would also be nice. And (slightly off topic) the U.S. should also have a neutral policy on Palestine-israel conflict. İt is troubling that zionist organizations have so much power on American foreign policy --and the future generation of America should change this distubing trend.

Meanwhile --it is the Muslims who should be more pro-active and continue to denounce any individual (calling him/herself a Muslim) who carries out suicide attacks or other forms of terrorism. We are a peaceful religion and we all want to co-exist. İt hurts to see the media portray us as backwards people who are extremists. Don't be fooled by this media/zionist propaganda.

Cheers.
