Malaria + World Hunger Kill the Same Amount Children Each Day as the Terrorists Killed on 9/11

"This year, malaria will kill over one million people, over 80% of which will be children" I think it's a ridiculous shame that we're murdering people in Iraq, wasting billions of dollars there, while so many people are suffering. Can people please see the truth?

and because of that we should just stand back and not fight for our freedom? This has to be the most retarded floort I have seen yet!

Fight for our freedom? What the hell are you talking about CTS, during this presidency and war we've lost rights of fair trials, privacy, and more. Do you really believe everything Mr. Bush says after all he's lied to you about?

I do not believe everything that any president has ever told me, but I sure do believe in standing up for our country! Saying just because malaria kills that many people everyday is enough of a reason to sit back and watch our country be attacked is a very stupid statement...

Watch our country be attacked? Are you possibly referring to the attacks during 9/11? Do you realize those attacks were never connected to Iraq? I never said anything about not finding Osama. I think the SOB should be found and killed. I'm criticizing the war in Iraq and saying that all of that money and energy could have been spent to actually HELP people in desperate need.

I know Iraq and 9/11 are not conected, the title of this floort tries to connect the two.

Well i'm sorry you thought that i was trying to connect iraq to 9/11. Let me explain what i was trying to do: I was trying to give people a sense of the devastation hunger and malaria cause everyday. I am NOT trying to say stop the fight in afghanistan. I am NOT saying to stop hunting Bin Laden because those are things we have to do. I am saying that the idea of us 'freeing' and 'helping' the people in Iraq is ridiculous. If the government really wanted to help people in the world then it would give people food and help fight malaria. There's no reason for us to be in Iraq and anyone who says we're there on a philanthropic mission is ignorant.

CTS, Scottler is connecting the two because of the money spent ... And you're connecting these two otherwise unconnected events because?

The title compares the daily death rate of malaria and world hunger to 9/11 and then the paragraph throws in Iraq which has nothing to do with the title, which brings me back to my original statement, that this is a very poorly written floort!

I actually like the floort. I think Scottlers' point is that the war is costing us a truckload of money. Dont get me wrong I was as horrified as anyone else on 9/11 and I am sure so was Scottler. The point is that 9/11 should not have triggered a war with Irak.

AND CTS'S POINT IS THAT 9/11 DIDN'T TRIGGER IRAQ!!!! They aren't related!!!! We invaded Iraq for many reasons, but 9/11 wasn't one of them! The only way you could connect them was that it was a group of terrorist that were responsible for Iraq and one of the reasons we invaded Iraq was for harboring terrorist. We never said we were invading Iraq because of 9/11! I don't know where you two geniuses picked that up from......
