P.S. Stop trolling.
Are you saying Iraq never possessed WMD's why he used them [Mustard Gas against Iran and the Kurds] outlawed since its use in WW1.
Saddam would of had an Atomic Bomb with Russian assistance if Israel had not bombed his nuclear facilities in the 80's.

During Saddam's interrogation by the F.B.I. Saddam said he would never give up his quest to develop WMD's and I'am sure sanctions and isolation slowed his efforts.
Besides Saddam was broke after his war with Iran the very reason he invaded Kuwait to steal their riches and oil.

P.S. Stop trolling.

Germany caused the war.... Iraq was invaded because of our politicians and their agenda to control oil and get rich while the kids of others were thrown under the bus.

Personally, I could care less what the other Arab nations do. I would like us to focus our efforts on being free of oil for our cars... want to see oil prices fall? get rid of the demand. If we aren't dependent on oil we have better security and we can do away with HSA.

Lets stop the $70 billion monthly drain from our economy that could go a long way to making us energy independent, and with cleaner air. then we could export our technology to China, India and Japan and help the world..... far better solution than making Dick Cheney rich with his stock options.

Also the oil we drill we will be taking at pre 2001 prices since it was the war that drove the prices up.
How about I come over to your house ininvited, kick in the doors and windows, beat the place up, evict you, remodel it and invite someone new to come in and then send you the bill.

I forget, did we find the WMD's in Iraq? What's that? No we didn't?

Did we spend enough in Iraq and Afghanistan to pay off the debt? No, so the entire thread is the opposite of smart.

So basically, you want to invade Iraq again. Smart. Please, stop with the emotion and think before you make a post. Nothing you said makes a lick of sense.
