re: Saddam and Al Qaeda
Was there evidence of some link between Saddam and Al Qaeda? Yes.
Was that evidence, or the link if correct, sufficient (or even significant) for a declaration of war? No.
I wonder how many other Muslim countries would have at least as much of a link to Al Qaeda as this? Pakistan comes to mind, and of course Saudi Arabia.
Face it, Tom, the Al Qaeda link is a straw for grasping, and a flimsy one at that.
