The Iraqis overwhelmingly feel that Iraq was of Bush's choosing and that it had nothing to do with the war on terror. Are you imagining that most Iraqis are upset by Saddam's overthrow? I note you refered to my post as "spin". So I'd like to reiterate that everything I mentioned is factual and relevant to the things you said in your earlier post. In response to your statement that previous Presidents had no Iraq problem, I pointed out that previous Presidents had fought Saddam over Kuwait, had bombed Iraq over inspection issues, had imposed the UN approved embargo and no-fly zones (which involve our aircraft patrolling the areas while being shot at on a daily basis). Those things are all facts and demonstrate your statement was incorrect. Similarly, I pointed out that the 1st Gulf War and the subsequent UN embargo of Iraq have been cause celebres for Al Qaida. Our involvement with Iraq has had a major impact on our being targeted by Al Qaida. This is a fact as well.
