President Bush declares war on Iraq. The foreign ministers of Germany, France and Russia condemn the impending military action, saying that the use of force has not been approved by any United Nations resolution.

    NO absolutely commitment from us millatary. How can they make the promise not to hurt the resident while firing aimlessly, No one could make sure that only Irak forces got the bullet, and when you see the picture you could imagine what if you are the one with blood on your body in the picture.

    you are going extremes. What the American wants in Iraq is nothing but oil.
    Five years ago the economy is operating well and the America needs news resources to guarantee the development of the economy. So you aimed at the oil in Iraq .
