This is common knowledge. It has been well documented that AQ was training in northern Iraq before the Iraq War. I'm not sure how you missed it. it's bull...islam al ansar had a training camp in kurdistan, but that was in the no fly zone, and a region not under the control of the Iraqi. We could have take them out in two shakes without going to war....it's not clear that they were connected to AQ anyway. But of course nowadays all terrorists are AQ for the convenience of so called "conservatives". . We do not differentiate between terrorists -- all terrorists are the enemy and must be killed. An attack on Israel is an attack on the US. Absurd from several stand points. Israel was not attacked, Israel is more than capable of defending itself if attacked, Israel is certainly not in need of us taking on pre-emptive war on its behalf. Pakistan is a problem, but we can't deal with them just now. Why not? The guys who attacked are there...not in iraq. You know why not, because we are spent thanks to iraq. Yes it did and we couldn't count on that. With so "many many" reasons, you are reduced to remote speculative arguments. I was pretty sure you were hesitant to make your "arguments" because they are easy to debunk. Iraq was never a threat to the US...not even when they had WMDs, which we helped them acquire by the way.
