man, If national security was really a priority we would have been surging into Afghanistan. Why is that so hard to understand? Iraq was run by a fucking genocidal lunatic, and he deserved what he got, but it was not our responsibility to take care of him alone, nor did he pose any eminent threat to the US. Afghanistan, and Iran posed bigger threats than to us than Saddam did. Of course we're really only worried about Iran because they might be making a nasty bomb that could slip into the hands of some more religious zealots, and eradicate all our hard work in Iraq.
Do I think humanity will be better off since the change in government in Iraq? Absolutely.
Do I beleive that because we changed the government over there we are any safer?
Fuck no.
9/11 was committed by Saudi nationals, not Iraqis. Saddam posed a serious threat to his own people, but not ours.
