Excuse me, but whoever said the infighting between Shi'ites and Sunnis is secular is completely ignorant.<br /> Shi'ites and Sunni are two rival sects of Islam.<br /> They have been blood enemies since the death of Mohammed himself, 1300 years ago.<br /> To say that the modern conflict between these two factions is "secular" and thus not about religion is asanine.

As someone said earlier, history will show the truth. I think in time, history will treat GWB much kinder than his fellow Americans and politicians abroad have. This goes back to the debate about FDR and Pearl Harbor, but if we know Saddam needed to be gone, is it really wrong to make a reason to get him out? Honestly, I think it is entirely plausible for Saddam to have gotten rid of his WMDs once he knew we would be looking for them. The world is a better place with bin Laden in hiding and Hussein dead. I think that these are ends that have justified the means (this war in Iraq/Afghanistan). For those of you who are upset about Bush's election, I'm sure you were part of the landslide Obama victory. Just be sure you know what you vote for. Don't forget: Hitler's cabinet voted on the Enabling Act every four years, granting Hitler power beyond the chancellor, making him Fuhrer and dictator. That's right, children, Hitler was given these powers by a group who voted to give him their own powers... he didn't just take them as many of us were raised to believe. This Act was re-affirmed every four years until his death. Don't blindly follow someone because they have a pretty face. Stand up for what you believe in. Is the death of one innocent worth saving more innocent lives? Absolutely. Will the US military continue to fight for what we know is right, even after the American people have abandoned us? I sure hope so. All I hope is that Obama proves to be a worthy successor, and lives up to the promises he has made. I was against him in the campaign, but now, as any true American should, I will support my President as long as he supports my country. [[User:NavyChick|NavyChick]] 17:34, 15 December 2008 (EST)
