Subject: RE: BS: Unpopular views of the Bush Administration
Why would Iraq NOT want to strike back at the USA? The USA was bombing and persecuting and threatening Iraq ever since the Gulf War with George Bush the elder. They were attacking and damaging Iraq on a daily basis, and violating Iraqi airspace on a daily basis. Seems to me that Saddam or any other national leader would be entirely justified (if a bit foolish) to plan retaliatory strikes against the USA, given such a situation.
Would the USA not feel justified to counterattack with deadly force if it were being bombed by foreign aircraft on a daily basis for about 10 years?????????
