Posting on FR isn't the only call on my time during the day. I think I've made my point: Al Queda attacked us on 9-11, but we turned our attention to Iraq, which didn't attack us. Saddam is captured, but Al Queda is still bombing people.
Must stop having a life :-)

No, we first turned our attention to Afghanistan and removed the Taliban from power because they were giving bin laden aid and comfort (and IIRC, named him their commander in chief of their armed forces just to tweak us)
which didn't attack us.
Attacked us through terrorist proxies or at least tried to. And basically Saddam was an irritant in the area that we needed removed. Imagine trying to fight a war on terror with him still firmly in power.

Al-Qaeda doesnt need bin laden to bomb people. IF he is dead, then why are the terrorist attacks by al-qaeda still going on? If he is alive, and then someday captured and taken out of circulation, but the terrorist attacks continue in al-qaaedas name, then what?
I argued with you about this before, and you ignored me then.
This is simply not true, although we have no evidence that he attacked us on 911 we have an over whelming amount of evidence that he attacked us in other areas including the WTC 93.
I will say this again. I am ashamed at you for being a freeper for so long and still ignorant of facts.
"but we turned our attention to Iraq"
Tell that to the 100,000 plus military members in Afhanistan...the SEAL teams would love to hear your take on this...since you think there efforts are not substantive.
You may want to tell it to the thousands of people who work in intelligence etc who are working very hard attempting to track down the little cave-dwelling coward.
