You have no facts, you just think that repeating the disproven assertions again will make them appear truer. Junior's public reasons for attacking Iraq are completely false and specious. Cheney's reason, oil, adequately explains the disasterous policy.

If this were about terrorism, then Junior would not have abandoned the search for the terrorists.

<font color=blue>It's been <font color=red>806<font color=blue> days since Bush said he'd catch Osama bin Laden 'Dead or Alive!'<font color=black>

his war not against terrorists

<font color=maroon>Good policy doesn't need to be defended by deception; the truth will do just fine.

We didn't get the truth a year ago, when Bush officials implausibly claimed that Saddam Hussein posed a dire threat to U.S. security. We're not getting the truth today</font>

....

<font color=maroon>Our men and women in uniform are not fighting for their lives against international terrorists in Iraq. They are not fighting the people who attacked us on Sept. 11, nor are they fighting allies of those people.

Instead, the guerrillas who are launching mortars at our military bases, attacking our troops on patrol or hiding booby traps on Iraqi highways are native Iraqis who are trying to evict American troops from their country. Despicable and cowardly as their tactics are, the Iraqi resistance is almost entirely Iraqi.

They are not attacking us because they hate Americans. They are attacking us because they hate Americans who are occupying their country.</font>
