9/11 conspiracists... ughhhhh... my most unfavorite people. Seriously, give me one factually accurate argument describing why our own government, all of a sudden after centuries decides to kill 3000 of its own citizens and start a war? War is incredibly costly on so many levels. Why would our government want to do that? Tell me, please. I really want to hear your reasoning behind that. "Because they want to take our rights away" is not a valid argument either. You have no proof of that. It's arbitrary speculation. Seriously, it's one thing to be against the war and the aftermath of September 11th, but to call the entire thing a setup by our own government? Please. Spare me. Come back and tell me when you've actually lost someone or something to that attack, then you can talk alllll about conspiracies.
And as for people saying war is never necessary, go live in la la land with the rest of the other idealists. War is essential in international politics. It's a realist world. Nations and humans alike are self motivated. If one country truly wants more power than anyone else, then the only way to stop them is by crippling them so that they physically cannot continue what they were doing. See, many people don't understand that. Most people just see war as a big spiteful way to get back at a nation who ****ed you off. That's not how it works. The goal of a war is to physically halt your opponent so that they:
a) Become low on military personnel.
b) Cannot afford the money to fight anymore.
c) Are spiritually broken and lose the support of others.
When this happens, they are FORCED to stop whatever it was that incited conflict in the first place. Wars aren't fought for the sake of fighting. They're fought to get something done.
