First of all, we are the ones who drew first blood. That idiot Saddam had nothing to do with Al qaeda. Saddam was just an egotistical evil leader...just like the one in North Korea....just like the one in Iran....just like the idiot in Syria. All of these countries I have mentioned are far more dangerous than Iraq ever was. We are incapable of defending our own country due to our unending involvement in Iraq. If you haven't noticed, there is an alliance forming against the United States because of this Iraq debacle; and my favorite part....the latest CIA outlook report of the world in 20 years....."Most terrorism in the world will originate from iraq, for iraq offers excellent training and recruitment oppurtunities for terrorist." Because we started concentrating on Iraq in 2002/2003, we let our guard down in Afghanistan, letting Bin Laden leave to whereever he is, and we will NEVER find him. For your information, I was in Iraq with the Marines(first battalion to cross LOD into Iraq, first in Baghdad, foulluja I and II), and ALL the news channels lie...it is total anarchy in Iraq right now, and there is absolutely NO end in sight.
