Re: Whose moving agenda?

REB,

I doubt that the American public would have supported going to war without the implied threat that Iraqi WMD's could be used against Americans here at home and abroad. A war simply to execute "regime change" would not have met muster. As for Al Qaeda links, there still isn't any convincing evidence that links Iraq with Al Qaeda's terrorism. A letter about a possible meeting from several years is not exactly a "smoking gun." Heck, we had far more communication with Bin Laden coolaborating against the Russians in Afghanistan.

P.S. I was not against the war. I was against going to war without securing UN support. In the long run, this would have served our interests better, especially given that Iraq posed no effective threat to American interests.
