War Child
What would the war on terror look like (Sept 12- present day) if Al Gore had been elected in 2000 and re-elected in 2004?

thank goodness we stopped him.
now, the earth is free of formerly American-supported dictators who kill, torture, and starve their people for fun.

No, it's not free of them completely, but one is a start. Are you not happy that the world is free of Saddam and his evil sons?

Irvine511 said:
am i happy Saddam is gone? yes.
was it worth the invasion of Iraq? no.

With his imaginary WMDs

was it worth the invasion of Iraq? no.
80sU2isBest said:
anitram, what was in those large trucks that were transporting material from Iraq to Syria in the weeks before the war? You know, the trucks that Charles Duelfer himself pointed out?
Irvine511 said:
good thing they're in the hands of the Syrians now.
face it: while there are arguments to be made for the invasion of Iraq, WMDs is not one of them.
let it go.
VertigoGal said:
that's generally how I feel, although I think whether it was worth the invasion will only truly be clear years from now. I really hope I'm proved wrong and that the country can succeed, that the invasion turns out to have been the right thing to do. I really hope so.
also, it's hard to unequivocally state whether or not it was worth it...someone who was tortured under Saddam may disagree with someone who's lost family in the current war.
80sU2isBest said:
Again, I'll ask - what was in those trucks?
Irvine511 said:
any number of things.
the burden of proof is on you, sir.
80sU2isBest said:Duelfer himself said that was a possibility.
Irvine511 said:
so we go to war on possibilities?
great rationale.

WMDs have not been found. That is a fact. Your presumption about the trucks is just that - a presumption.
