“After 911 there was no way not to make sure they didn’t have nukes or were working on ways to nuke the US.”
If Secretary Cheney would have handled Iraq correctly in 1991, there wouldn’t have been a need to go back in 10 years later.

I don’t disagree with this.
They also mismanaged it, which is probably a nice way to say it.
Not saying your right or wrong, but what would you have done after the coalition ran saddams army out of Kuwait? That was a turkey shoot (I was there) but the alliance had limits too.
The biggest problem I had with the non-conclusion of the 91 war was the poor enforcement of the no fly zones. Saying saddams helicopters didn’t constitute no fly zone violations was just dumb and allowed saddam to remain in power.
