And now you are changing the subject from the cost of the war in Iraq to WMD and tying Iraq to AQ.

The cost of war has been adequately described and defended by those more capable than I.

Reading any of the dozen of links I can send you regarding AQ and Iraq may change your mind as well. You would have to commit to a lot of reading -let me know if you're interested.

Regarding WMD - we know he had them because he used them. Did you know that all the intelligence agencies for the nations on the Security Council at the UN believe he had them and thus the 17 resolutions that dealt specifically with WMD. Why do you think Hussein chose war rather than reveal their whereabouts? Why do you think Hussein chose war rather than permit the UN inspectors free access?

Of course he used them!! Back in the 1980s when the current administration turned its head instead of turning Iraq in to the UN. War between Iraq and Iran was still going on and the current administration backed Iraq.

Did you know that all the intelligence agencies for the nations on the Security Council at the UN believe he had them and thus the 17 resolutions that dealt specifically with WMD.

Maybe you should ask yourself if I care. Maybe even better you should ask yourself why do you care about resolutions going on in an organization most conservatives want out of in the first place

Why do you think Hussein chose war rather than reveal their whereabouts? Why do you think Hussein chose war rather than permit the UN inspectors free access?

Hmmmmm, let's see, to save face? I know that may come as another shock to you but he didn't want to lose face in the Middle East. So let's see, stand up to the administration, allow war to come, have a definite exit strategy, make the US look less than perfect when no WMDs were found, and appear as a martyr and loved one to all the Islamic kooks out there. Nah, that would take actual thought and from the reponses on this thread the only ones capable of rational thought are President Bush and the PNAC
