Iraq

We should be at war in Iraq. First of all, the Global War on Terrorism is why America went into Iraq. On September 11, 2001, our country was attacked by terrorists; therefore, our government announced that they would take military action to stop the terrorists. Our country should take action against those that perform terrorist acts. Secondly, bringing peace and stability to the Middle East is another reason why we went to war in Iraq. The instability in the Middle East allows terrorists to operate. America has been supporting Israel, and to continue the support of Israel, America must ensure the stability of the Middle East. Thirdly, America needs to enforce the earlier agreements on Weapons of Mass Destruction. Upon the completion of operation Desert Storm, during former President Bush’s term, there was an agreement to stop producing nuclear arms and destroy existing stock piles of Weapons of Mass Destruction. America needs to ensure that these agreements are met. As you can see, there are many reasons, listed and unlisted, why we should be at war in Iraq!

“Ever wondered what the most powerful man in the world listens to in his spare time? In a rare departure from formal media interviews, George Bush has revealed what is on his personal IPod. Andrew Wilson reports on the President’s favorite tunes,” Sky News reports.

President Bush gets out his 4G iPod and reads some of the artists contained within: The Beach Boys, The Beatles, Alan Jackson, The Archies, Aretha Franklin, “Dan McLean,” upon which Bush was corrected “Don McLean” by Brit Hume, and more. Bush also has an iPod shuffle for bike riding. Bush also says U2’s Bono “dropped his new iPod on me”. “This is a clunker, compared to the newer version”, Bush said. He didn’t say if it was the iPod Nano or the 5G iPod…

You can watch the interview at Sky News.
