    Well I don´t know if freedom is worth that much if it involves constant threat to your life. It´s like being let out of prison to the freedom of a minefield...

      All these wars and fighting abroad is just to avoid looking at the US inner security problems.
      The government wants to make everyone believe that terrorists are the real threat and nuclear bombs and what not, however as of now, the biggest threat to an american is another american.

            They were asked in a survey conducted by the UN which found that the people are still living in misery:

              I have three views:

              (1) Short term -- We're safer because the terrorists, who would otherwise have been targetting the U.S., have been heading for Iraq.

              (2) Medium term -- We're less safe because our intervention into Iraq has resulted in the recruitment of a lot more terrorists. After the current Iraqi conflict is over, they'll have to go somewhere.

              (3) Long-term -- Uncertain. If the Baghdad government is seen as a U.S. puppet, then the Iraqi situtation will continue to work as a seed crystal, precipitating terrorists out of the general population and loosing a reign of bloodshead.

              But if the Baghdad government is seen as being truly democratic and an engine for liberty, then the momentum will turn away from terrorism and towards the democratisation of the Arab states. In this case, the world will be a lot more safe and a lot more properous.
