Hi everybody. Interesting discussion this evening. I am also someone of the mind that 9/12 would be an appropriate time to invade Iraq. 9/11 is evidently going to be a big day of memorials and news coverage. I think it's important to not invade on 9/11, because everyone in this country--everyone in the world--needs to watch the memorials, replaying of the terrorist attacks, etc. all day long, again without the distraction of other world events. The timing of an invasion on 9/12 would be like the government saying to our 'allies' (and even to many in this country) "Remember that? THAT was why we have to do what we're doing today."

I agree with you.

It's also a reminder that the US might be very vulnerable at the same time and we better have our eyes and ears open.

It would be nice but I don't think the President will do it then ...

This is a time for reflection and prayers to all that lost their lives and the President won't do anything to over shadow the event ..

However, the week after may look good
