The issue is terrorism and WMD regardless of where they are......NK, Iraq, Syria, Iran.

We disagree which you should not find surprising. We weren't hit on 9-11 by "terrorists" in some generic sense but by Al Qaeda. We need to focus on the hunt for Al Qaeda. Those other countries are about other issues.

Iraq was not a serious imminent threat and no evidence yet uncovered offers serious argument that Iraq and Al Q were tied. NK is a very serious issue of nuclear proliferation; the most serious one on the globe at the moment. Syria is part of the complex that is the ME and needs to be treated with practical measures to control the violence there. As for Iran, that bears watching. I don't think anyone besides ideologues are clear about it just yet.
