Sam that is a crock of shit. Even the Bush administration has admitted there are and probably where no WMDs. How many scientists have were interrogated, err.. I mean interviewed? Nobody has been able to come up with any evidence of a program beyond the dismantled program of the early 1990's. Bush lied.
the Presidents decision to go into Afghanistan can be credited for a reduction in terrorism. However, there is no evidence of links between terrorists and the Sadam regime. I heard and interview early this week with the former regional head of the CIA for the Iraq and Afghanistan area. He said that Bushes war in Iraq pulled critical resources out of the field in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan that severely hampered the ability to track and capture or kill terrorist. And that although they have yet to attack the US since 2001, it is only a matter of time and that we are being lulled into a false sense of security. If anything the amount of terrorism in the middle east has increased due to our intervention in Iraq. Have you seen the news lately? How many died this week in car bombings in Iraq? Saudi Arabia? How many have been our are being held captive? How many Americans soldiers and civilian contractors have been killed or maimed by terrorists? Because they are in a war zone they don't count? Bush is an idiot. We are worse off for our invasion of Iraq. $320 billion and counting, what is the latest count of American forces who've died in Bush's private war? 1,500+ ? How many maimed? 10,000 + ? and that just the Americans. Countless innocent Iraqi's. In addition to the countless Iraqi's fighting against the invasion of their country. Not to mention the Italians, Japanese, British, Polish and others who've been victims of this atrocity. Meanwhile, Bush bails out of Salt II so he can build more Nukes. >>Hmmm do we know there were no WMD? Didn't I hear they might be in Syria but it's too dangerous to check? Hmm do we know there isn't a Santa Claus? Just because your mom and Dad said they were playing that role for the first 10 years of your life do we really know he doesn't exist? Maybe he doesn't live in the North Pole. He cold be producing all those toys in Syria. The war on terror seems to have paid off: http://www.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2005/5/1/135511.shtml Sunday, May 1, 2005 1:48 p.m. EDT Wash. Post: Iraq War Kept U.S. Safe In a stunning admission, the Washington Post said Sunday that President Bush's decision to go to war in Iraq deserves at least some of the credit for the fact that terrorists have not been able to launch another 9/11-style strike against America. "A broad cross section of counterterrorism officials believes al Qaeda and like-minded groups, in part frustrated by increased U.S. security measures, are focusing instead on Americans deployed in Iraq," the paper said, "where the groups operate with relative impunity." Bush administration officials have long argued that taking the war to the terrorists' doorstep was the best way of drawing fire away from the homeland, while "draining the swamp" of global terrorism's most notorious players. Conventional media wisdom held, however, that the war had actually boosted al-Qaida recruitment - generating an even greater threat to the U.S. than would have otherwise been the case. Intelligence officials cited by the Post, however, now say just the opposite has happened. "Reports of credible terrorist threats against the United States are at their lowest level since the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001," according to U.S. intelligence officials and federal and state law enforcement authorities cited by the paper. Even in the Middle East, the Bush administration's offensive strategy seems to have produced results from a national security standpoint. With their ability to communicate and move about freely limited by tight U.S. and Pakistani surveillance, Osama bin Laden and his top lieutenant, Ayman al Zawahiri, have both recently urged Abu Musab al Zarqawi, chief of al-Qaida operations in Iraq, to organize attacks on the U.S. homeland. But Zarqawi himself remains pinned down by U.S. forces in and around Baghdad, with almost weekly reports of skirmishes where he's barely eluded capture. Unnoted by the Post, the war has also eliminated a key safe haven for global terrorism - Iraq had for decades played host to some of the most notorious perpetrators of attacks against American civilians. Abu Nidal, whose terror organization is credited with dozens of attacks that killed over 400 people, lived in Baghdad from 1999 till August 2002, when he was found shot to death in his state-supplied home. Abu Abbas, who masterminded the 1985 hijacking of the Achille Lauro cruise ship, during which wheelchair-bound American Leon Klinghoffer was shot dead and pushed over the side of the ship - died in U.S. custody after being captured in Baghdad.
