they're not helping them or rebuidling anything that makes up for the amount of destruction they're causing, it's all a big lie, listen to the soldiers that come back (check google video). for every school that's built - ten are demolished, they're destroying it on purpose.
Welcome to the Cellar. You are claiming the coalition forces are intentionally destroying schools for no reason other than orders from above?
I'm can't swallow that one without some proof or at least a plausible reason. It just doesn't float. I can see the Islamic extremists destroying secular schools and trying to keep girls out of classes, but not "our" side.

Control the oil? No, just knock out Saddam and the now free, formerly oppressed Iraqis, will be so grateful we'll be in like Flynn. Occam's Razor. Never assume an evil plan when stupidity explains it. Actually turmoil isn't to our advantage, but a solid bloc would be worse. As long as Saddam was in power there was no danger of that.
