You just don’t get it. I know we have to fight. But why are we fighting the wrong people? On 9/11 we were attacked by proxy from SAUDI ARABIA. They are the ones that have fueled Jihad all over the world by financing madrassas(s) all over the world. Saddam was correct to wonder why we were targeting him, and why we chose to defend Kuwaiti Emirs.
No. you don't get it. Everything that you've said has been wrong.
The Truth About Saddam and Terrorism
Saddam Hussein’s Iraq had extensive ties to terrorist organizations, including Al Qaeda, according to an official report published by the Pentagon’s Institute for Defense Analyses and released through the Joint Forces Command.
That report, Saddam and Terrorism: Emerging Insights from Captured Iraqi Documents, came up with some startling revelations in its 59 pages:
Saddam supported at least two al-Qaeda groups: Pentagon Update: What it means
You obviously know nothing about the Gulf War. It was a US led NATO operation.
Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein ordered the invasion and occupation of neighboring Kuwait in early August 1990. Alarmed by these actions, fellow Arab powers such as Saudi Arabia and Egypt called on the United States and other Western nations to intervene. Hussein defied United Nations Security Council demands to withdraw from Kuwait by mid-January 1991, and the Persian Gulf War began with a massive U.S.-led air offensive known as Operation Desert Storm.
” I know we have to fight. But why are we fighting the wrong people?”
We weren’t.
Invading Saudi Arabia was out of the question. If you do not know that, you are a raving madman. But we did kill uncounted thousands of Saudis in Iraq and Afghanistan. And OTHER extremists. Overseas, not in the US.
At a time when everyone was expecting more terrorist attacks on US soil, we held them by the nose and kicked their butts - OVERSEAS! And as a result, we were safe in the USA. It took Obama to screw it up!
Saddam’s military was shooting at me for much of the 1990s. I gather you do not understand that. Do you remember 9/11? Are you old enough? Have you ever been to the Middle East?
