It's not that he did not invade, it is that he agreed they were there....

Why is that so hard for you to understand...

And? Many people thought Saddam was a dangerous man, I know a few Kurds who have fought against him and his people and can vouch for how dangerous he was.

The fact that Clinton didn't invade Iraq and Bush did is the difference between those two. Why is that so hard for you to understand?

So, clinton did not agree that there were weapons?

What triggered bush to invade?

Are you saying that if the same trigger to invade would have happened to clinton, as bush, clinton would not have invaded?

What a bunch of B.S.

Al Qaeda this and Al Qaeda that. People blame bad weather on Al Qaeda. Bad food in a restaurant? Blame Al Qaeda. Couldn't sleep last night? That's Al Qaeda's fault too.

It's the Commies all over again. Only thing missing is Foster Dulles coming on TV to read you the latest scary bulletin.

What triggered Bush to invade?

His own stupidity and his incompetent intelligence agencies. Not to mention that idiot cabal of his PNAC buddies like Wolfowitz, Feith, Perle, Cheney, and Kristol.

Plans were already in place to invade Iraq.
Saddam announced Iraq would leave the USD in 2000.
Rumsfield was planning the Iraq attack 5 days after 9/11 as he ordered info on Saddam as well as bin Laden.
By 2002 Iraq was off the USD and trading in Euros.
We invaded Iraq in March 2003.
We immediately had Iraq move back to the USD for oil trading.


Another Pentagon paper planned out 7 countries in 5 years for our military action.

That fits the narrative that Bush was a puppet told to lie in order to invade Iraq.

If, I may,
President Clinton had actionable Intel by (SAD) Special Activities Division of the CIA, on the exact location in Sudan, they waited for "Red Tag" orders on OBL several times, and a Ground Branch Operator waited for orders that said, come home.


Protestors don't march in the middle of the night with Carbines and RPG's in front of an American Embassy unless they're looking for Direct Action and a fire fight. It does matter, even the South Africans we're offering and willing to help.
