War is expensive - it makes the countries fighting weak - this war could cost 100 billion initially and it might never end!

North Korea is a much bigger threat to USA then Iraq.

Bin Ladin and his terrorists have and are attacking USA and Americans; He definitely is a threat - at the very least take care of bin Ladin first.

Attacking Iraq will help bin Ladin recruit new members to
attack USA - do you think that is a good thing?

Funding is being taken away form homeland security to fight a country that is not involved with terrorism, how can that be a good thing? I would like to see the security of the USA put first - I mean look the USA let known terrorists in and then trained them how to fly - 9-11 was something that could have easily been prevented. Now the govt is making it easier for terrorists to get into the USA again. F-ing wonderful and for some god only knows reason - you support this!

Iraq would probably be a willing ally in the fight against bin Ladin

But Bush wants to focus the vast majority of the USA military strength at a time when the country can least afford it. Against the wrong guy! please note I did not say a good guy! (Saddam is a horrendous dictator and USA should do all it can to SUPPORT the Iraqi people in getting ride of him short of war).

Did you hear today that commercial office space in major US cities is available at 50% off and it’s still not being rented out - that is scary! - the USA is headed for a major depression - and Bush is going into debt like its he has daddy's credit card - except it's not daddy's credit card not it's yours - maybe we better all start learning Chinese.

Look - the Mexicans are a bigger threat to USA than Iraq - they are talking over California - US can't even afford to control the border! What makes you think you can afford to take control of a nation on the other side of the world successfully?

Why is the impeding destruction of Iraq the best use of the American Military and financial resources at this time???
