Again you only read what you want you don't listen nor comprehend show me where I said we went to war solely because of alqaeda. I NEVER said that

what I said was


Look its simple, we were attacked, and we went after a country/dictator to
1) prove a point
2) establish a democratic state in a large muslim populated area (think domino effect)
3) Remove Saddam from power
