First time I ever herd that one, Bentway. About plans to invade Iraq prior to 9/11 (other than that there are always plans on the drawing board to invade numerous countries at the Pentagon as just part of the general war planning process).

Do you have source for that info?

I do agree both parties participated in "Domino" theory politics, but some of the claims coming out of that belief strained credibility.
