The Pros And Cons Of Bombing Iraq
The Islamic State is a terrorist group that should be stopped. They have hurt and continue to hurt a lot of people, but there isn’t much that the U.S. could do that has not been done yet. In my opinion, the fastest way to end with a problem is to get rid of it completely. One way to achieve that is by using nuclear weapons. Bombing Iraq to swipe the Islamic State could be an infinitive answer, but like everything there are some pros and cons to this method. To be more exact there are more negative effects to this method. First of all, Isis is not just in one place, but it’s spread all over the region. That means the U.S. would have to use many bombs. That would be extremely expensive and ineffective. Also, we would also be killing innocent

    On September 11, 2001, about 3,000 people were killed, and over 6,000 people were injured in the United States. Al-Qaeda, a group of Islamic extremists, hijacked four airplanes to execute suicide attacks. Two of the compromised airliners hit the World Trade Center towers in New York City. Another plane struck the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., and the last plane crashed in Pennsylvania in a field. The American people were unfortunately surprised because of those attacks; many loved ones were lost, and many terrorists escaped from our government’s reach. Because of this infamous event, the officials of the United States government have debated and are currently debating whether they, the government, should be allowed to observe and retain information…

    While most Americans call the war the, “American-Mexican War”, the other side would call it, “The U.S. Invasion”. If it is God’s reasoning to expand the U.S. territory as far as possible, then is it also his reasoning to murder those upon their own land? It is not only unjustified to take the land from the Mexicans, however to become inhuman enough to kill those while doing so is unspeakable. There was no need for any more conflict at that time, so to start a war was not ideal for anyone. Would a war be more beneficial or cost efficient than a compromise or a buyout? The Mexicans had only simple ideas of allowing outsiders into their land to increase population. In the words of General Francisco Mejia, “The right of conquest has always been…

    “We might have accomplished something if we have been able to treat the terrorist attacks of 9/11 in a way similar to how we treat the damage on the nation's highways-by implementing practices and requirements that are directly related to results (as in the case of speed limit, safety belts, and the like, which took decades to accomplish in the cause of auto safety)-rather than by throwing the nation into a near panic and using the resulting fears to justify expensive but not necessarily effective or even relevant measures.”…

    The only military use of atomic weapons has been on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and almost certainly brought a prompt conclusion to WW2. However, the question of whether it was necessary is still hotly debated 70 years after the event. The answer is no it wasn’t necessary, although it is not as simple as you may think because if I had just been a soldier fighting in New Guinea or if I was a POW starving on the Thai-Burma railway [1] then answer is yes it was necessary. Necessary can have various meanings though such as indispensable or requisite, but also mean acting from need. The question becomes very problematic or ambiguous if one uses both meanings as again we get a yes and no.…

    I don't agree with the methods employed in Operation Fast and Furious. Main reason is the ridiculousness of the pros and cons. There are much more cons in this situation right off the start. The moment the federal government decided to sell 2,000 rifles and handguns to these cartels is when they made an inexcusable mistake. You can't give criminals weapons and expect to track them as if they will be insight or fully in control of them. Better methods should have been implemented in this program. Starting with the under staffing of the operation, the ATF should have requested greater help and communication with the local law enforcement agencies. I guess in some ways certain federal agencies keep certain operations a secret to prevent being…

    What would you do if you were a soldier, and you knew that if your country didn’t drop the atomic bomb, then you would die?

    A terrible tragedy occurred on December 7, 1941, Japanese planes pounced on a naval base in Hawaii near Pearl Harbor. The attack lasted only two hours, but the results were tragic. Huge battleships were at the bottom of the ocean, more than 2,000 American soldiers dead, and 1,000 wounded soldiers. The U.S didn’t sit on their ass, they declared war on Japan for their unexpected barrage. FDR was the U.S current president and he was hiding an atomic bomb that could ruin Japan and it was going to be released. I am pro with the atomic bomb being used because there were numerous occasions when the U.S warned Japan that they were going to drop if they didn’t surrender, but pride covered the Japanese and they refused to give up.…

Several reasons for such outcry pertaining to the use of the atomic bomb were the moral dilemmas behind the bombing, the mass destruction caused by the bombing, the horrible physical and emotional effects on the citizens of Japan, and strained relations between America and Japan.…

    It is our recommendation that the atomic bomb is not dropped at this time. Dropping the atomic bomb would be costly, and many innocent lives of children and women could be lost. We do not want lives of solders to be lost; therefore, we should force japan to surrender. We should also use the weapons that we are using at this time. If it is necessary to drop the atomic bomb, we should do so at the end as our final result.…

    Like some on the left, Krauthammer no doubt believes that total disarmament will make us all safer. On what evidence could he believe this? Rather than explain how criminals will be disarmed, he points to Canada and Great Britain as models.[65] Neither nation, however, is the gun-free paradigm of domestic tranquility that he imagines.…
