You know if the intelligence community had been correct and there was indeed WMD's and we waited and a terrorist organization had got ahold of them, and used thenm you 2 would have complained Bush did nothing.



I would prefer if we had just kept inspectors there. Saddam wouldn't develop anything big while they were there. Iraq had no more of a connection to terrorism than any other nation. There's no evidence to suggest he had any real connection to terrorism, let alone any plans to supply terrorists with anything. The only plausible reason why Saddam Hussein would ever want to attack us would be because of the sanctions we demanded to keep on the country.

If we were wrong about WMD's in Iraq at worst we got rid of a brutal dictator. But of course that doesnt matter you guys have bashing to do, sad really.



The reasons congress appoved of an attack don't matter? No WMD? No imminent threat? No real threat at all? No real connection to terrorists that attacked us? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, but he's a bad guy. Sure, he was a bad guy, but is that any reason to invade a nation? That reason wasn't given as a reason Iraq posed an imminent threat to us. We didn't care in the 80's when Saddam was actually committing these deeds. The "brutal dictator" thing is an excuse, not a justification.
