Lots of people recognize that the stated reasons for the Iraq war still stand, after and given 9/11/01. Clinton was fairly tough speaking on Iraq DURING his time, noted the need to stop Iraq, was for the action in Iraq as it happened, and if you implied differently (seems you did), that's just flat-out wrong. The concern over Iraq throughout the Clinton years, and the letter to Clinton to that effect which you mentioned, are both uninspiring when entertaining thoughts of conspiracy to do something other than protect America after 9/11, by taking down Iraq. The issue you bring up as to whos lives are more important, Iraqi lives or American lives, is specious at best. There certainly is no treason per your argument. All lives are important. In this case Iraq being the bad actor it was, most certainly threatened American lives anyway. Saddam's regime is known to have had contact with and supported bad actors for both the PLO and Al Qaeda (yes, it is in the evidence, naturally). Dan B.
