I keep asking myself as a country, how do we benefit from this. So far I draw blanks.

However, when I factor in those that pushed for war, it's very simple to see how THEY benefit. For example, what is the connection between Bechtel, Rumsfeld and Saddam? Do you know?

As for acting out of fear for a worse 9/11 has proven to be a farce. Just about everything Bush stuck on the table to justify the war has turned up false. (no wmd, bogus uranium claims, bogus drone program claims, etc.. ) And notice now how all those topics have been quietly shoved aside and basically "forgotten" by the admin.. The marketing of the war is over. Now it's time to market the patriotism and the American spirit and bravado. Talk is cheap when you get to sit behind a desk in the White House.

I guess we can agree to disagree <g>
