I never said that Bush was a murderer. But he did order air attacks on Saddam's supposed position twice, knowing full well that there would be loss of innocent life. I'd still think there is a better way to conduct the country's business than that. See Bush had an agenda too, and he weighed those innocent lives in the balance and he chose to try to get Saddam. Doesn't make him worse than Saddam. But it does tend to bring himself closer to him with that tactic. At least give the poor bastards a chance to give up and run like hell. Dropping hell fire from the sky gives no chance. And instead of trying to bomb him, with the kill volume of a 9-11, estimating that 45 bombs is a bout the same as 2 fueled 757's, why not simply keep track of his movements and try to corner him in? I don't get the tactics that Bush uses at all. Now we still don't know where he is. And this has not been a good thing for bringing an end to hostilities. If we "knew" good enough where he was to bomb him, then we should have kept an eye on him. Apparently they were doing that when they called the strikes. And if you do miss, and he slips out, you have given him the cover to do so. You're not going to let your man hang around while you're dropping bombs are you? But we still "knew" where he was twice?????? Why not follow him and corner him in? No I don't agree with a lot of things that have gone on. Bush lovers can't see. Orca
