Oh we compare a lot of humans with orcs... and perhaps some of the dwarves like to use language that is vivid... Try not to read too much into that.
My view on Iraq right now is to support my President and his advisors, because I trust them. They see things I can't, and know things I don't. I don't often armchair quarterback decisions on that scale. They think Iraq, Saddam and his goals and plans are a threat to us. I will take them at their word and support them. That is what we hire them to do.
I don't think Iraq is related to 9-11 in a direct way. Only in the sense that the entire region is a mess. They have always been a mess, and likely will be for some time. Our best goal is to limit their reach wherever we can, and that includes Saddam.

Let's clear this up!
I am the one who said they will be defiant, dead Iraqis.
Then John Farson ripped it out of its context and suddenly everyone is justifying why that was said.
Now, I'll put it back in conflict.
I posted this the day the Iraqi Parliament voted to deny the UN Inspectors access to Iraq. They (the Parliment... for those who get lost using pronouns) said that they (again, the Iraqi parliament)were being defiant.
I posted the vote and commented that they (the Iraqi Parliament) are about to be dead, defiant Iraqis. I make no apology for that statement. Even if people ban me to Tooks Corner.
The context did not state the Iraqi people. It stated the leadership who are blindly leading Iraq into war.
Hope that clears it up.
