Where'd you get your degree in World History, Hubby? Correspondence school? Geez, Louise, but you pick and choose to make the story justify the acts of the current under-achiever in the White House, don't you?

If that's where the terrorists are then that's where we need to go and get them.

Terrorists are, under most circumstances, people who behave virulently because they are violently opposed to the politics and actions of the parties they attack. Sometimes these people would rather have stayed home and not taken this route if we'd have left them alone. But the U.S. is notorious for meddling in other nations' business. Some of these folks have tried telling us "MYOB" for years and it didn't take. Sometimes we need to ignore those requests, sometimes we need to pay attention. Bush doesn't know how to pay attention. Capiche "Ugly American?"

Let's not forget though that the reason we are in Iraq is to finish what the UN started trying to do. You remember....there was a brutal dictator that just happened to be taking shots at our planes while trying to enforce a UN mandated no fly zone and during all this.. him and his two sons were...oh, I don't know....killing thousands of their own people. It just so happened that the terrorists came to us while we were there...so let's just stay and clean up the crap while we're there.

The Brutal Dictator was hemmed in by Bush's Daddy and kept hemmed in by Clinton. Sometimes you neuter a feral animal and leave it in it's environment so that another feral animal doesn't move in and start more trouble all over again. Baby Bush thought he could do everyone better, but instead of getting rid of the feral animal, he opened a feral animal Pandora's Box. Baddies all over the place now.
