Save Mother Earth

If we were to ask a young child, why do you think we went to war with Iraq, we would probably hear because of the 9/11 attacks on the Twin Towers. But honestly, is that really the answer to the question that's been haunting us for 7 years now. Since September 11, 2001, we've been in a useless war doing who knows what over there.

Not only are we hurting others, but we're hurting ourselves as well. However, who cares when oil is involved!

According to The Debate, they show the proof that Bush isn't in the war because of 9/11, the war on terrorism, the UN weapons inspections, weapons of mass destruction, Iraqi human rights or any of the factors that the US government would like you to believe are the true motives for war. President Bush could careless of what happens to people because this war is a business transaction to help the rich get richer. - BBC News (UK)

Apparently, Bush has been planning an attack 6 months before 9/11, just that 9/11 gave him an opportunity to go in there. What's his reason for going? The official reason was to improve Western access to Iraqi oil. - Sunday Herald newspaper (UK)

The media and government officials tell you what you want to hear. They play on your hatred for the 9/11 attacks so they would get your support to the war. Does the government show you the other side of the story and let you see what the Iraqis really are thinking. This unnecessary war will not help us profit in the long run despite the fact that we're fighting for oil. The only people benefiting are Bush's administration and people who invested heavily in oil.

We have to find the real news by ourselves and not be blinded by the war propaganda that we're faced with everyday leading us to believe that we're fighting for revenge but rather for greed and power. Refer to "Related Links" entry to see the real deal behind the war.
