It has been disclosed that in the days immediately following 9/11, while formulating plans for retaliation, the president received advice from his cabinet that it would not be feasible to extinguish terrorism (using the administration's broad definition) without dealing with Iraq.

ah, yes...the (in)famous cabinet. What a credible argument. I am convinced.

That Iraq is not a terrror related threat is obvious to all but the politically motivated or the totally insensitive

It has been disclosed that in the days immediately following 9/11, while formulating plans for retaliation, the president received advice from his cabinet that it would not be feasible to extinguish terrorism (using the administration's broad definition) without dealing with Iraq.


Excuse me but when and where did this disclosure occur? Are you suggesting you were at this cabinet meeting?

Why do you suppose this consideration was made? Particularly, while the dead at WTC were still being counted? Do you think these advisors were thinking "revenge for Bussh 41's attempted assasination"? Was it about oil? Within weeks of 9/11 did these advisors put these issues ahead of dealing with the true problem of terrorism?

Don't have a clue since I was not privy to the disclosure. This is the most bizarro bit of crap to come out of your mouth. I swear you're in some kind of delusional fantasy.
