I'll just play with this one a little bit.

----------------------------
Because that was one of the arguments pushed forward (Either you're with us or against us...Saddam supported Al Qaida w/ money and training grounds, etc...). This was after all part of the War on Terror and the Axis of Evil.

--- What are your sources for this? When did we sit there and claim that Saddam and Al Queda were the reasons for this war? This was a war started because the UN was too big of a pussy to back up its own demands and we saw the ability to squash a problme before it got worse

-----------------------------
PART of the main reason is that Saddam wasnt cooperating. The other half was because of bad intelligence from Chalibi and other intelligence outlets (CIA, etc) saying that Saddam had WMD's ready to go. We know this is now false. The only WMD's that have been recovered were so degraded they could no be used in combat.

--- So you have proof there was no WMD? if he diddnt have them why did he continually dodge the weapon inspectors? He could still have his shitty little country if he would have cooperated. You mean to tell me it is not possible to bury that crap out in the middle of the deser to where nobody would find it? Bad intelligence maybe, however his own actions re-enforced that belief, but there is no proof they WMD are not there. We dont have the manpower to dig a hole every 10 feet in the friggin desert to find where he stashed him, or he could have easily transported them to anopther country or even given them to any number of organizations.
---------------------

The focus has suddenly changed from WMD's to freeing the Iraqi people. I dont see too many Iraqi's being freed though.

Weather or not the WMD threat which there is evidence that it did, but not a whole lot that it diddnt,either way, they are gone, hidden, buried, destroyed, whatever. At this point in the situation the WMD are obviously not much of a threat anymore. So of course were gonna "Free" the iraqui people because america is so arrogant they think they know everything best for everyone.

Oh, and as far as the other countrys with us invading them, the one thing we left relativly intact was thier military and governmental structure, however, this time we obliterated thier governmental structure so they had nothign to fall back on. the civil was in iraq is a direct result of our interaction, this was a new type of war. "Kill the leaders first"

The reason i dont like discussing politics is everything thinks they know everything about everything, they think everyone else is wrong, quite frankkly, i dont put much merrit in other peoples beliefs in politics.

personally i think politics are a nasty business. i tend to stay out.
