    YES!! It's either go over there and fight them or have them come here and kill our civilians.

    The war in Afghanistan - yes. He was obliged to,

    because that's where Al Qaeda was. But I think the

    911 bombing was a distraction from his real agenda -

    Iraq. I think he had the Iraq invasion on his mind

    before he became president. WMD turned out to be

    bull s---. The idea of fighting for oil makes no sense.

    It would have been cheaper to just buy the oil from

    Iraq. It's not like we're getting for free. And even

    if we're getting a discount, I'm sure it's far

    out weighed by the cost of the war.

    The only purpose I can think of, is that Bush wanted

    to get the US strategically positioned in the Mid East.

    But he won't admit it.

    No, Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, nor did he have WMDs that was the whole premise of going to war. Where's Bin Ladin?

    W. is doing the exact same thing as the Emperor. I have studied this closely and it may sound stupid but, No. I don't think so to answer your question.
