I think plenty of reasonable folks are today in hindsight maybe conflicted or ambivalent about Iraq....it's a decent argument about was it worth it or where did all the WMDs go?

Syria...who knows?

Yes...I think Bush had a personal honor vendetta on Saddam...can't say I blame him.

But did he and Blair and others concoct his whole war for political gain...no...not to me anyhow.

But as is human nature they may have followed intel where they wanted it lead rather than where they did not.

I sure don't see it as a big conspiracy.

For me the real defeat of the War of Terror is our inability to define the enemy for whom it is....Islam and failure to be realistic about the followers and instead to just ignore realities that defy the new PC logic concerning anyone not considered white....were most Islamists Afrikaaners we would give no such political quarter.

That is the big failure and in time we will rue our weakness.

TSA patdowns, civilian trials, calling Islam a religion of peace when it is anything but and calling terrorism man-made disasters and refusing to call it Islamic terrorism are all signs we are weak as runny butter.

No, I don’t think it was for political gain or some kind of conspiracy. I just think it was something Bush wanted to do. I think he had his own reasons.
