They don't understand because they trusted Saddam and Sons, and the President did not.

Who's this 'they'? I don't trust Hussein, and maybe he was a SOB. Maybe not. But for over 20 years he was 'our' SOB. And the 'ties' to Al Qaeda were denied by the President last year but when he sees support for his police action, all the sudden they exist again?

Saddam was not 'our' SOB.

American troops never set foot in the sands of Iraq or Iran during the 1980 - 1988 Iran/Iraq war, and we where on the liberating side of Kuwait conflict in late 1990 and early 19991.

He arms are all (T72 MBT, AK47, AK74, PRG-7) Russian with some French anti-aircraft stuff.

Why do you lap up the AQ line that we create all our enemies, and then attempt to regurgitate such nonsense as your own ?

George W Bush was not President 20 years ago.

The US was not fighting a WOT 20 years ago.

The US fought the Gulf war in 1991, and Saddam signed a surrender agreement.

And since then the US media has reported on Saddam and Sons connections to Islamic Cults, his crimes, his billions, his rogue nation status, his terrorist state status with the State Dept, his refusal to show doc of destruction of his WMD, his science, his attack on our pilots, his assassination attempts, the UN's failure to contain.

And now the US media "reports" everyday that the President of the United States lied about a pretext for war, when he has repeatedly said he could not trust him after 9/11, with US boots on the ground fighting in the ME.
