No, you should stick to what it's always been, and has never changed since the get go, the threat of WMD getting into the hands of militant Islamists, following the events of 911.


Ah, the manufactured reason. Sure, whatever you say.

Ahh, so what Kevin Pollack concluded was "manufactured".  What the NIE concluded was also "manufactured".  What messers France, Germany, Russian, and UN concluded were all "manufactured".  Well, if you're going on record as claiming some mass global conspiracy headed by Bush, you go right ahead

Unless of course the idea is to be intellectually dishonest...


I'll leave that to you. You do it so well.

Funny, I seem to be the one sticking with consistency, and not adding layers of distortion on the primary reason we went into Iraq.  Naa, I'd say that's all you

And we are there because after taking out that threat, it would have been morally reprehensible to have left the Iraqi populace in such a state, with the extreme liklihood of Iran & Syria taking over the Terrorist movement, with a brand new country to use, and it's people to abuse

Yeah. Better we abuse them.

Well, when you can actually demonstrate how we're abusing them vs how Saddam was abusing them, then you might have a leg to stand on

Iraq was not where the militant Islamists were in 2002, Thatr would have been Afghanistan. Bin Laden could have been wiped out there, but the forces that could have done the job were pulled out and sent to Iraq.  There was no reason to invade Iraq. The US cannot win an Iraqi civli war, so there is little room to stay there, either.  Juniorbush will go down in history as one of the greatest f*ckups of the XXI Century.

A) Militant Islamists did have connections to Iraq in 2002
B) We did go into Afghanistan where the bulk of AlQeada was training
C) We SHOULD be putting more emphasis into getting Usama
D) There was absolute justification for going into Iraq
E) The U.S. isn't in a civil war, and isn't trying to "win an Iraqi civil war"
F) Thank you for that BDS opinion
