It was in the 80's

No I don't believe Saddam had any plans of attacking the US, too chickenshit. He liked to bully his neighbors like Iran and Kuwait."

The missles did exist. Several landed in Israel and one landed in Saudi Arabia in Gulf I and one in Kuwait in Gulf II. Saddam got dinged just befor Gulf II by the UN because the missles under manufacture had a longer range that the UN allowed him to have. Too long of a range for self defense.

"Like how many US citizens were involved in the 9/11 attcaks???"

How do you mean involved? Killed? Injured? participated? Were affected by?

I'd probably a million were affected.

Remember when good old peaceable Jimmy Carter attacked Panama to oust Noriega? Was pineapple face planing any attacks on the US? Carter was a Democrat though and gets a pass.

That reminds me. Ever heard of the carter doctrine?

"Let our position be absolutely clear: An attempt by any outside force to gain control of the Persian Gulf region will be regarded as an assault on the vital interests of the United States of America, and such an assault will be repelled by any means necessary, including military force."

Shame on warmongering, lying, greedy oilman Bush for enforcing the policy of a pervious Democrat President. No pass for him.
