GST:
Look at it this way, 9-11 caused a geo-political shift. The path we were on was shifted, from internal workings of the faltering economy to raising of eyes and finding new path-to elimination of terrorism
First the real baddie, OBL and crew. Situation covered
Who is next ? Iran, N Korea, Iraq, Syria.? Pick which one
.We were not doing this to save humanity or or help suffering people,It was to prevent attacks on the US and to stop countries from supporting terrorists, which includes supplying WND's
We lacked intelligence on all those countries except one- Iraq.
Iraq had barrels of WMD's, they had been trying to make an H-bomb they had the enriched uranium , they were trying to get long-range missiles, and above all we had proof because the UN Inspectors had discussed those things in their reports. What we could not have known in 2003, was what he did with all that stuff , but we are well on the way of finding out and preparing a report
Saddam lied cheated and stole. Paid no heed to the 14 UN Resolutions which he was required to implement to prevent breaking the truce existing from the Gulf War. A really bad guy in the eyes of the UN with no excuse for violating the rules.
.Give me his excuse - if he did not have WMD's, why did he not tell the Inspectors what he did with them .?
Some argue it would make him look weak in his neighbors eyes- I wont buy that excuse
He had armaments everywhere in that counrtry, schools, libraries, hotels, buried, even had buried fighters.
He was in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong reputation and the wrong attitude
Target zero.
