Choose an issue: Iraq War and Reconstruction - Candidate Comparison Barack Obama - I would have voted against the October 10th congressional resolution authorizing the President to use unilateral force against Iraq. I believe that we could have effectively neutralized Iraq with a rigorous, multilateral inspection regime backed by coalition forces. Nothing since the end of the formal fighting has led me to reconsider this stance; indeed, the inability of Saddam Hussein to mount even token resistance to American forces, the failure to discover any significant, deployable arsenals of biological or chemical weapons inside Iraq, and the on-going turmoil currently taking place in post-war Iraq, have only strengthened my views on the subject.Estella Johnson-Hunt - I initially opposed war and wrote the president trying to dissuade him from striking unless America was struck first. Since it happened, however, the U.S. more or less is obligated to reconstruct to avoid risk of looking like a mad destroyer who doesn't repair. The ingratitude of those who are yet killing peacekeeping soldiers makes one wish war had never happened, however. Apology needs to be made to U.N. by president for not listening to them at first so that more nations will send in forces to help keep peace and rebuild. |
