Actually, your comment prompted my question....After all, we WERE attacked on Sept 11, 2001. The President, and the Joint Congress spelled it out as well. If we have proof that Iraq has been hiding and aiding terrorists who caused this attack (and who are planning others), then I believe it is self evident and self defense to protect this country from another attack, as much as possible.

Christopher Hitchens, writing in The Nation, goes back and forth with himself over the pros and cons of an invasion and, finally, concludes there is a moral obligation to insist on a public debate before anything else is done.
