Re: isnt it crazy how much $$ the US spends on their military but they aren't that go
They definitely did beat them. The petro dollar still exists. They lied about the reasons for the invasion but made a ton of money off why it was really started. Who knows if they didnt the USD mightve collapsed by now. Oil became the new Gold Standard highwhey. Don't you know?

War is never for righteous reasons. It’s [I]always[/I] about profit.

yes, well, i'd like us as americans to speak up about it and how we disapprove. we send in our troops to get killed for a pointless conflict. we can use that money to help our citizens.

[QUOTE=highwhey;15045135]let's get into that. what does it have to offer? for starters. and when you name them, please explain the cost of achieving those things.[/QUOTE]
