Americans are dying for Iraqi freedom

WHAT????? You seem to have conveniently forgotten the war in Iraq was primarily to remove the “threat” of nuclear weapons

What you seem to have never internalized is that we went into Iraq for one reason, and one reason only-- to depose SH’s evil regime.

Rubish! If it was agreed he had complied with 1441, he would have been able to stay in power.

Correct. Because then we would have been satisfied that he didn’t have WMDs at his disposal to possibly provide to terrorists.

<snip off-topic material>

  
   We issued an ultimatum for him leave or we would make him.

That was a couple of days before the war. It is clear that even if he (and his sons) did leave, Bush would still have invaded.

No, Scott, it is not “clear” by any stretch of the imagination. That is your (ignorant, I might add) opinion.

  
   He didn’t, and we did.

He was the threat, he was the link and sponsor of terrorism.

Can you evidence what terror acts against the USA he sponsored?

I can say that he sponsored terrorism against Israel. He used WMDs against his own people. That means that he had no compunction with associating with such swine (I chose “swine” because it is particularily offensive to Muslims) or murdering innocents on a massive scale. That made him public enema number one.

  
   The removal of SH killed two birds with one stone-- increased world safety and liberating a people from tyranny.

Can you evidence how the Iraq war has brought about “increased world safety”?

The threat of WMD falling into the hands of terrorists via SH is gone. The threat of continued mass extermination of innocent Iraqis at the hands of SH is gone. The word is out to terrorists and those who would sponsor terrorism-- the days of impotent UN sanctions and resolutions are gone-- we mean business, and we aren’t afraid to act; offensively if necessary.

And if we hadn’t taken the fight to the terrorists, do you honestly believe that the US would have gone almost 4 years without a follow-up attack from OBL? If so, you are deluding yourself.
