ORIGINAL: ladyingrace1979 There was only one reason for this OIL. No, there is also the fact that our government is permanently on its knees before the Israeli defense lobby. That's a lot more important than the oil. We could cut off the Israelis tomorrow, as we ought to anyway, and be swimming in oil.

This sounds reasonable. However, I think that we still give way too much credit to the Bush administration by saying that they have any sort of covert plan. There is no rabbit in the hat, nothing up their sleeve. They messed up-- it's as simple as that. Except that it is now well known, thanks to former cabinet and staff members that G was working on a plan to sell going to Iraq to the american people from the get-go. 9/11 provided a convenient way to manipulate us into going along. Oh, and they only looked at intelligence that suited their preconceive notions about what they wanted to do. Everything else was discarded. So do I think there's some sort of conspiracy? Nope, just plain good old fashioned incompentence from the C student running the show. November can't get here fast enough for me. quote:
Iraq was never a threat to world security and they weren't much of a threat to regional security. And even though Sadaam was a tyrant (no one argues that) Iraq was STABLE. We went in and completely destabilized everything when we should have been concentrating on Afghanistan. Now there was an invasion I totally supported, and still support.

ORIGINAL: RubySparkles Thank you Jenni but I think you've missed the question. The question is why Iraq and not Zimbabwe? She told you why...we went to Iraq to protect our country. That is what our military does. Zimbabwe is no threat to our country. What means did Iraq ever have to threaten the United States? John

ORIGINAL: ljmac John Kerry, Bill Clinton, Hilary Clinton, Al Gore, Nancy Pelosi and just about every American in leadership all said that Iraq either had a WMD program or WMD weapons. Some of their statements and actions preceded GWB. Based on faulty intelligence which begs the question: Is our intelligence agencies promoting their own agenda through feeding the government a bunch of half truths or out and out lies?
