chooseanother...."Then take Pakistan. Or Saudi Arabia. Not Iraq. But you are right... makes it quite a complicated operation. Anyways... that is a short answer and not really an answer at all but I have to jet right now. It is the crux of the matter so I don't mind discussing it or thinking on it (which I have done a lot)... but later. Take care."....

Chooseanother, Not sure that would be a good idea...Pakistan is a muslim controlled nation as is Saudi Arabia
Attacking them would be viewed as an attack on islam something that Bush for some reason wanted to avoid and
of course Pakistan has nukes and like it or not it appears that most of that nation is radical.

I think that when the radical muslims scurried across the border to pakistan US troops could not enter a sovereign country so pretty much had to let them go.

So how to get radical muslims to come to you... start a fight in there yard... Saddam was a good enough reason to attack Iraq so Bush thought and in so doing caused radical muslims by the thousands to come there to get a ticket on the allah express.

IMO the MOST IMPORTANT thing that was accomplished in iraq was that islam radicals have been defeated by the free world
in their muslim country.... this is a lesson that the muslim world will NEVER forget and IMO the only thing that Radical islam understands.

The radical islamists have now fled back to Afghanistan and will now make a stand there. Radical islam
have lost face in the world of islam and it is my understanding that honor is very important to all muslims.

Again IMO Iraq war has been a great success in convincing islam that they can lose and must make changes to their violent cult.

It is my belief that in war it is not who is right but who is left...the free world must win no matter what the cost...IMO

So what will come next?? maybe Pakistan will be on the hit list.... or Iran where radical islam is the government. A defeat for these crazies may convince islam that serious change is in order for their violent cult. IMO.

I don't pretend to know what Bush's motives were for attacking Iraq but IMO it was the correct thing to do at this time in history.

And I agree...Saudi Arabia is the crux of the matter...where it all began.
