I am sorry but I am not aware of Cuba attacking the US directly as Saddam did numerous times? Or do you think the attack on the USS Cole, the WTC attack of 93 and training terrorist to take over Airlines with Forks and small knives as just marginal mischief?
We are on different wavelengths. Because they know they must win Iraq, because if a free society is achieved in the Middle East then it is just a matter of time that other countries follow. Why does that matter? Because sharia law and freedom can not co-exist, that would mean the destruction of Islam as they know it. If we win this fight I believe this fight against the Middle east that has lasted for thousands of years will finally see an end.
Personally I believe the terrorist will attack the US when they have finally lost in Iraq. That will be the day when I know we won in Iraq.
When did Saddam attack the US directly? I know that Osama did, but when did Saddam do so?
