who’s fault is that? Current president was hell bent on destroying everything that was accomplished and he succeeded in doing just that by not only pulling troops out, but announcing he was going to long before he actually did- Taliban simply went into hiding till we left- and now we are seeing the disastrous results of an inept president’s handling of the war- a president who naively things that ‘being nice’ to the enemy will win their hearts and souls- either that or he is ACTIVELY AIDING and ABBETTING the enemy by making things very easy for them- What else can explain his letting prisoners of war go so they can go back and murder more American soldiers? Sure Bush let some go as well however, they were NOT high level officers in the terrorist faction like the recent released prisoners were- Also, what else can explain his lifting sanctions on Iran? What else can explain his failure to act to save Coptic Christians?

President Bush and ALL of congress heard the cries from those Iraqi refugees- and they responded- many people think we went to war simply because Bush wanted a war- or simply because there were WMD’s (which EVERY memember of congress was convinced- via intel reports from all over the world, existed- and quite frankly HAVe been found, and WERE witnessed y our troops o nthe field)-

Saddam had repeatedly violated international laws against peacetime airspace, firing on, and killing our men and women in the forces- We gave him several chances to comply with un regulations and he refused- He also kept directly threatening us, and there was intel at the time of the tower attacks that the terrorists were aligned with Saddam-

We also went to war- per approval of EVERY member of congress- to stop a genocidal maniac that was the modern day hitler of our times- The world turned it’s back on such a brutal dictator once before, and millions of people were exterminated- until we finally recognized and reacted to the the horrors and stepped in to stop it-

Every member of congress heard and saw photos of the brutality that Saddam was doing against his own people- and when Saddam went in and used WMD on his own people, killing more than 10,000 of his own people- there was no longer any question that he had to be taken out- He was violating UN laws- He was committing mass atrocities, he was using WMD’s against his own people, He was murdering our soldiers long before we ever declared war on him- He had every opportunity to stop, but he thumbed his nose at us and continued right on with his psychotic and dangerous actions- He was repeatedly and directly threatening us, and based on his actions, and based on what had just happened to us Sept 11, it was very clear that saddam was in the process of carrying out his threats—
