Rumsfeld Comments

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14570794/

This news article is on today's MSNBC news page. I read it and was offended.
It is titled, Rumsfeld: War critics suffer ‘moral confusion’

It reports that "Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld on Tuesday accused critics of the Bush administration’s Iraq and counterterrorism policies of trying to appease “a new type of fascism.”"

Again! Heaven forbid anyone try to take a stand against President Bush and the current administration.

Question: If we have removed Sadaam Hussein from power and replaced him with someone our federal government approves of, then how are we trying to "appease a new type of fascism"?
We are not in Iraq because that is where the terrorists are, we took over the country, according to our federal government, to give the people of Iraq the freedom we think they want.

I personally am so fed up with President Bush's focus on Iraq. If we truly want to rid the world of terrorists, why aren't we invading Saudi Arabia, Iran, etc. Hell, why don't we just nuke the entire Middle East and wipe it off the face of the Earth?
Oh, that's right, if we did that we wouldn't be able to make any money rebuilding it once we destroy it, and oops forgot how important that oil is. Forgot about that.

All sarcasm aside, when will our current administrators stop accusing every one who does not agree with them of being anti-patriotic or suffering from "moral or intellectual confusion".

Just in case you forgot Mr. Rumsfeld, we live in the USA, and are protected by our Constitution which allows us to speak freely and disagree with our leaders. Shame on you for belittling those who do not see things your way or the Presidents way.

Regarding the war in Iraq. The country that never attacked the U.S.; Never killed a U.S. citizen.; Did not have weapons of mass destruction. Why did we go to war in Iraq?

It is written in Daniel 11:28-30:

28. The king of the North will return to his own country with great wealth, but his heart will be set against the holy covenant. He will take action against it and then return to his own country.
29. "At the appointed time he will invade the South again, but this time the outcome will be different from what it was before.
30. Ships of the western coastlands will oppose him, and he will lose heart. Then he will turn back and vent his fury against the holy covenant. He will return and show favor to those who forsake the holy covenant.

The one thing the country of Iraq is not, is innocent. They were dangerous threats in the past, however since Sadaam Hussein has been effectively removed from power(and he is a very dangerous man), the threat has been quashed to some extent. My opinion, I believe we attacked Iraq because we believed we could beat them, and make money from the conflict all at the same time.(hence the bogus claim of Weapons of Mass Destruction) Unfortunately, it seems as if we are repeating history - many are relating the Iraq War to the Vietnam war, and I for one agree. We need to get out of there before one more US Soldier loses his/her life.
