53. Where and on what date did Congress sign a Declaration of War against Iraqis?
"Why do you suppose those defeated Iraqis keep trying to kill our soldiers stationed there? They didn't get the memo that they were defeated 4 years ago or something?"


Ummm... because we're STILL THERE 4 YEARS AFTER DECLARING "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED"??

Suppose China or Russia decided that WE needed a regime change and invaded us. Would *we* greet them as liberators? Short answer: yes, at first.

Would we STILL see them as liberators if they were here bombing our infrastructure and killing our citizens who took up arms against them? Meh.. not so much. But they would sure report back home about how many "insurgents" they had killed today.

Again, your whole basic concept of your OP is FLAWED and illogical. Time to go back to the drawing board, my friend.
