I know it wasnt his idea... A lot of things are crazy about Iraq. I just think Biden's idea that he is proposing is the most logical and I havent really seen or read anything else that makes sense to me. Before Saddam took over the Bath Party was the central governing body. Not religious group. Funny how things change. The next part of my post is directed at allmosthumble. The idea bugged me enough, that I think I am now dumber. Name a country that has talked another country into peace. Wow that is painful. We spurred this civil war. Iraq will not be at peace. America isnt at peace. We have horrible stats in regards to education, job security, new growth areas within the economy, crime, health care, and now because of the actions of our President, we now have a growing threat from people we use to consider and hold true as allies. WHAT IS PEACE??? Killing other people because you think they might attack isnt peace, its global tyranny. just a painful statement. the sentiment being kill them all, cause they are a threat??? Thats not an LDS thought, thats an extremist muslim thought. Muslims and Mormons have a ton of similarties. We both believe in respect and love. Both belive in the abrahamic covenant. Both believe in strong family units. Both believe in humbly praying. Both believe in public displays of our religion. Your thoughts are born out of ignorance, and you should maybe read a book... start with the bible, then work your way forward. The gospel is like light. You can recognize its different then darkness no matter who you are. However the more you study it, the deeper it gets. Light has the qualities of waves, and beams. Light has the ability to distribute heat, and propel nutrients into animals and plants. individuals see light differently due to the rods and the cones in their eyes or the way God made them. Allmosthumble... look to the light man. think about Jesus. Think about how he helped people no matter their station in life. His whole life was about service, healing, and growth. Your idea of projecting those teachings is they say they are a threat, so we should kill them all. I just am blown away on your take on the gospel. I am not even talking about Iraq. I am talking about a view on people that we believe God made, sent to that region of the world to be tested and tried to reach THEIR divine potential. But, you think, hmm i read they are a threat... this was a bit of a rant... i dont feel any better. darn.

Moroni would do what he always did... that’s all I was saying. He never killed someone that was repentant... even after they had committed atrocities. I wasn’t saying I could do that. If I met Osama, I would have a hard time not killing him. That’s why he was so amazing. My comment was about Moroni. Moroni was also the main general in the army and he took control of it many times in the Book of Mormon… it wasn’t a matter of just going and doing. I don’t think he would be in Iraq. Now that we are in Iraq, I agree, no matter what we do, it’s going to have a huge infrastructure change. I like Biden’s ideas about creating three territories that work separately but still operate in the interest in the whole. Who knows though? I don’t have an exit strategy, that’s why I am not President. Much respect to anyone over there though. If I were at war I think I would read the war chapters constantly... go Teancum on people, then I would die...

If the “he wasn’t serious” comment was about my post... Yeah, completely… except the president comment. That part was a joke

I love when people justify the Iraqi war as a just cause. As you say lets give Iraq freedom you are saying lets build a wall around mexico, and ps good luck. The beliefs that specific parties put forth are absurd. I lived in egypt, I know arabs, I know muslims. Bush made a mistake and didnt have an exit strategy. We STILL havent caught Osama Bin Laden. moroni wouldnt be in Iraq. He would have captured Osama, then he would have said, respect our liberty, our religion, and our families. if Osama said "ok" then Moroni would have hugged him, and said welcome to the truth my brother. If Osama said "no" then Moroni would have said "we will end the conflict' blindly following the republican party is absurd. follow right and wrong. Want to vote wisely... pray for this ticket in 2008 President - Al Gore - Democrat Vice President - Mitt Romney - Republican
