[quote=njtosd][quote=enron_by_the_sea]If GWB did not invade Iraq to find non existent WMDs, this day would have been avoided.
Sadly the architects of that strategy are still advising many presidential candidates and version 3.0 of that team is coming to to “keep America safe” soon.[/quote]
Hmm – you could also say that if Saddam Hussein had never invaded Kuwait there would have been no need for a truce allowing inspections for WMD (that Hussein later decided not to honor because he didn’t want Iran to know that he didn’t have them).
Perhaps we shouldn’t have intervened in Kuwait? And so on and so on. The middle east has been in a state of unrest forever. I think Trump’s wall should be built around that area.[/quote]
History has already judged GWB’s second Iraq war as purely a war of choice, based on manufactured phony evidence and conducted in an incompetent fashion. The verdict of history on that war is clearly written! People can bury their head in sand and pretend that some other alternate reality exists. I can’t change somebody’s wishful thinking. But history books on the second Iraq war are finished now. They are never going to look at GWB kindly. They will never say that Saddam caused it by invading Kuwait!
