Re: OK, you win
9/11 happened, and it was terrible. Something should have been done long before to prevent it, and something had to be done in response.
Invading Iraq was not justified on the basis of a connection to 9/11.
Invading anyone to prevent terrorism is like closing the barn door after the horse is gone, and at the same time blowing a bunch of holes in the barn walls.
The US has had it's head stuck somewhere else for many years. Violence begets violence... and it works both ways.
