The Iraq War was justified
Iraq War--The 2003 invasion of Iraq by the 'Coalition of the Willing'.
Justified--Having, done for, or marked by a good or legitimate reason
There Never Should Have Been An Iraq War
Here are my following arguments: 1: We invaded because we thought there were "weapons of mass destruction" but, if that was the only reason we invaded Iraq why don't we invaded every country that we know has weapons of mass destruction. 2: There are nonviolent ways of winning. My example: President Regan in the 1980's, he created an arms race that he knew would bankrupt the Soviets and they did, and he defeated America's #1 enemy without firing a single shot. So why didn't we do that instead? 3:...
Iraq War
The first round is acceptance followed by one round of case building no rebutting the opponents argument. I will be arguing to end the Iraq war while the opponent must give reason to stay in the Iraq war. Good luck...
Resolved: On balance, the United States was justified in going to war with Iraq
The resolution is stated above.
The BOP is on my opponent to prove why intervening was justified, which he shall begin in Round 1. To prevent a disadvantage, my opponent cannot post anything short of a rhetorical statement for the last round.
Justified- Legally, economically, morally, or politically correct.
Good luck!
The Invasion of Iraq Was an Illegal Act of War
I wish to debate the legality of the Invasion of Iraq in 2003. It is in my opinion, that this action was an illegal act of aggression in the eyes of the international law as manifested by the UN charter which clearly states in article 51: "Nothing in the present Charter shall impair the inherent right of individual or collective self-defense if an armed attack occurs against a Member of the United Nations, until the Security Council has taken measures necessary to maintain international peac...
The war in Iraq was a joke
Round 1- Opening Remarks Round 2- Arguments Round 3- Conclusions I think that invading Iraq in the way that we did was a huge mistake and a waste of American lives. It could have been handled much better, and if anything it just destabilized the situation in the Middle East further....
Was the war in Iraq justified?
Just want to hear your argument. I say no because it was not even proven who the attackers of 9/11 were. Some speculations even say it was the government because they can enter Iraq. Discovery Channel (i think) interviewed the people who made the towers and they said, there is no way a simple plane crash could have leveled the building since the temperature was not hot enough to melt the beams unless something under the building was done, like C4's. Also, know WMD were found so why did we just s...
The United States going into Iraq and Afghanistan, and starting the War On Terrorism
The war in Iraq and Afghanistan and the War On Terror are a complete waste of American time, money, and lives. We were attacked by one group, not two nations. We also have no business poking our noses in the problems of another country when we have our own problems on the homefront....
The War on Iraq
I want to see if anyone can give any good reasons for continuing the war on iraq. Seeing as the person we went in looking for left a while ago, and the fact that we seem to be running around in their country causing more harm than good. Personally i think its a waste of time. While we spend billions of dollars just to keep up a useless presence over there our economy is crashing, granted they predict a recovery but until then what are we to do? It seems as though the only thing we do over there...
The Iraq War
Thanks to DAbest for accepting this debate. I before I start the debate, I'd like for my opponent to answer the following questions. 1) What would you have changed about the War in Iraq? 2) Do you think Saddam Hussein was an 'evil' man? Why or why not? 3) What were beneficial effects of the Iraq War? Unbeneficial?...
