President Bush admitted, almost, on Friday that he was thinking of invading Iraq even before 9/11. Not that this is news, but it's something that we all keep forgetting, and it's important to keep on him about this. What WAS the point of this war?
From USA Today:
I believe the decision to go to war was the right decision, particularly after September the 11th.So, even without Sept 11, it would have been valid to go to war. But before Sept. 11, there wasn't a war on terror, so what would the justification have been? Look, I don't like Saddam, I don't think the Iraqis were flying kites before we invaded, but it's BS for the president to start coming up with alternative pre-9/11 reasons to invade, now that the WMD discussion has gone out the window (not to mention, what DID happen to Sarin gas shells they "discovered" a few months ago?)
