Re: What kind of man is our prez?
How man Iraqis participated in the 9/11 attacks? None.
The war in Iraq has little to do with the war on terrorism. At best, it's an indirect relationship that won't be felt for many years. And I have serious doubts that WMD and/or terrorism had anything to do with this administration's true motivations there. After the first Gulf War, Saddam's military was effectively reduced to a strong-but-local thug. To the US and our interests, he was a second or third tier threat, at best.
Quite frankly, our nation - and the world - would be better served if we exerted the same commitment of force towards the most direct terrorist threat. You know, the ones who actually attacked us on our own soil, and threaten to do more? And that douche and his henchmen are likely somewhere in the the Afghan-Pakistan border region. Despite what the administration and the media might lead you to believe, the war in Iraq is actually diverting badly needed military resources and personnel away from where they're really needed. That's where our troops in Iraq should be. That job should have been done first.
