For the past few days we have had news streaming out of the country of Pakistan about terrorist information. In December 2002, India and Pakistan military stood face to face on the border of Kashmir. The Indian Govt. wanted its troops to march into Pakistan to flush out the terrorists who were fleeing into Pakistan from Afghanistan. These were the same terrorists who had attacked the Indian parliament in December 2001. India asked for Bush's help and wanted the US military yto continue its march across Afghanistan and east ward into Pakistan. Instead, the Bush Administration did a 18 degree turnaround and sent the trooops into Iraq instead. After failing to achieve the ever shifting objectives in Iraq, the Bush Administration is slowly admitting that it made a mistake in not keeping up the heat on the terrorists and pursuing them into Pakistan. We know today that all the terrorist related intelligence and the arrests of terrorists are coming from Pakistan. So Saddam was a threat all right, but not as serious a threat as Al Qaeda. I think Kerry should answer "No, he would not support" to the question "Does he support taking out Saddam from what we know now." I say so because our priorites are Al Qaeda and we now know that Saddam was not a threat.
