iraq war

Hello. The discussion I started in political philosophy on the 2003 Iraq war was deleted. I read the forum rules before posting and I don't think there was anything wrong with my post. Could someone please tell me why it was deleted and if there is anything I can do to discuss this topic? Thanks.

Hello, I am new to the site. I can only imagine there was probably someone or something that broke the rules or maybe it was deleted for some other reason. The 2003 Iraq War is surely an interesting one to discuss, however. Cheers!

I'd be interested in talking to you privately about it, but I am not able to contact you privately for some reason.

Hi, I deleted the post. We require the body of posts to hold the substance of the argument or topic, rather than being linked off-site (otherwise we just become a repository of links!). If you can perhaps provide a summary or some detail of what you're trying to argue for in the OP in the post itself, it would probably be fine.

Thanks for the explanation. I have tried again without the link.
