I always kind of thought that W was trying to kill two birds with one stone in Iraq. Getting rid of Saddam as a prerequisite to establishing a more normal government in Baghdad as well as drawing out the Jihadis in the heart of the Middle East so we could fight them there instead of here. Seems we were able to acquire some valuable intelligence as well. Hope we didn’t put panties on the perp’s head in the process.
“Yoohoo, Muzzies... We’re in Iraq, come and play!” alQaeda and other terrorists flocked to Iraq from all over the world to fight the U.S. Military- Brilliant!
