The Bush administration certainly had no qualms about getting over 5000 of our soldiers killed in Iraq...so why not a bunch of Iraqi civilians? He obviously was very callous towards the lives of people. We had no legit reason to go into Iraq at all. Period. They didn't invade us. They didn't do anything to threaten our interests in the region (they actually helped our interests). They posed no threat to anyone outside of the Kurds and whomever pissed Saddam off in Iraq. We never championed the Kurds, so that wasn't a reason...they were never mentioned outside of the gassing incident....gassed with chemical weapons we provided to Saddam during the Iran-Iran war to use on Iran (and those all have pretty short shelf lives, so anything left over from that would have been rendered useless as a weapon...so no WMD's). That pretty much leaves greed and revenge for trying to kill Bush Sr. I think it was both. The PNAC report from prior to Bush taking office (I forget the year offhand) had taking Iraq as a strategic objective. So this was being planned long before it happened.

That is truly what you believe?? I guess that's....possible. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:351314 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
