Alighieri Re...I said Iraq never attacked us.< Your exact quote is "Osama Bin Laden attacked the US. IRAQ NEVER HAS...not directly nor indirectly" You said directly or indirectly. Attacking our allies is an indirect form of attack. Also, Iraq did attack us directly, as Iraq was behind the 1993 bombing of the twin towers. the Saudis were at war by then on our side and were flying bombing raids to Iraq) Nonetheless, Iraq did attack Saudi Arabia. then you say that they shoot at our airplanes, which are there on US and UK own initiative and have no UN backing. While that wasn't a UN condition, it was a US and UK condition for ending the Gulf war. If Saddam didn't like the conditions, he should have kept fighting. Saddam agreed to the terms and he should live by them. And then you say that they pay Palestinians to blow themselves up in Israel... That is a well known fact, both here and in the middle east. Are you disputing that Iraq pays the terrorists, or are you saying somehow that attacking our ally isn't attacking us indirectly.
