Why don't you look at the facts yourself and use logic thereafter? a) Why don't you know about all the 17 UN resolutions from 1991 to 2003, and what they were all about? What were the economic sanctions imposed on Iraq all about? How come you can claim that President Bush misled everyone, when he only became President in 2001, ten years after the first UN resolution demanding from Saddam an accounting of his WMDs? If you used your logic honestly and consistently you should be saying that the entire UN was misleading the world since 1991 that Saddam had WMDs. b) Are you against freedom and democracy for the Iraqis? If you are not, then why your relentless campaign to establish "facts" that are no longer relevent? c) Are you suggesting that Iraq be turned back to the Baathists, who come from less than 20% of the population, and were brutalizing the 80% that comprise the Shia and Kurds?
