U.S. Out of Iraq

            Recently the United States has been in conflict with the Middle East. The declaration of the military operation in Iraq began March of 2003. The problems between America and Iraq have caused a great deal of hardships for both countries. The most noticeable reason for this is that we are losing members of our troops. President Bush assumed that Iraq was withholding weapons of mass destruction, but they are yet to be found. Also, the U.S. government has spent incredible amounts of money trying to re-build the Iraqi government. The United States should not have connections with Iraq or Iraqi government.
             The citizens of America have to deal with the pain of saying goodbye to loved ones as they go off to war with the thought in their minds that they might not return. These soldiers are risking their lives to defend our country although most of them cannot legally drink or have just barely graduated high school. The thought of somebody's daughter, sister, brother or son never coming home puts a great deal of stress and worry on a person. People are increasingly losing loved ones, but the government insists on sending more troops to Iraq. President Bush signed a bill passed by Congress for funds to secure Iraq and rebuild Afghanistan after touting a new policy to spread democracy through the Middle East. Many people agree with this attempt to scatter democracy for a greater good. But will it be worth the lives sacrificed? Possibly if we can control middle eastern situation. Still, many lives are being lost. The U.S. death toll in Iraq has surpassed the number of American soldiers killed during the first three years of the Vietnam War. It is hard to turn on the television without seeing on the news that more troops are being killed everyday, knowing that it is hurting the morality of the country. .
             President Bush declared that Iraq was withholding weapons of mass destruction in early 2003.
