I disagree Axismaster...
There WAS a reason to go to Iraq. The reason was to get rid of an evil dictator who was killing inocent thouasands of his own people a day and the fact that their are millions of people getting killed around the world a day, not just in Iraq is not a suitable enough of an argument to me. I KNOW there are millions of people who get killed every single day. It happens on the streets of the ghetto right here in America, people get shot for no reason and I KNOW there are a list of other dictators around the globe who send inocent men, women, and children to death everyday, but I don't look at it like that. It isn't like that in MY mind. In my mind I'm thinking " well, atleast we can go over there and stop the killing of some of those people in the world, it dosn't prevent the killing of every single person on this planet, but having the police in America dosn't stop all of America's crime either but atleast we get rid of some of it.

America's "temporary" stay gone too far.
We see it on the news, at least once a week. Hundreds, if not THOUSANDS of Iraqis, as well as American troops, are being killed. And, sure, as President Bush may say "sacrifices must be made", there hasn't really been a "worthwile" cause for all these people to have lost their lives.
The reason why President Bush had gone into the war in the first place is quite a grey area. As we see quite clearly on documentaries such as "Farnheight 9/11", Most of Mr. Bush's actions have been put forward with assumptions, such as the infamous WMDs. So now, we must ask ourselves, has all the confusion and deaths lead to a peaceful reasolution? No. More harm has been implemented since the Americans came. It is time for them to step out before they completely lose control.

Welcome to YouDebateIt.com
This is the place for debate with an added element of friendly competition. This is a debating and essay resource and practice tool, not a debating society or club. There are no complicated rules, but these debates have structure. Each debate consists of a topic with two opposing views.

These are short essays limited to about 150-165 words. Present your strongest argument the first time, since you can't go back to change it--as with the National Forensic League and other speech and debate formats. Read these debates, then vote for your favorite arguments.

These debates are fun, informative and give exposure to all sides of the issues. Most debates will be archived (arguments that are obscene or offensive may be deleted). The better and more interesting debates will be featured.
