Pretending there was and is no fear of another 9/11/02 in the near future, and pretending that Hussein never "could" supply international terror groups with the materials required, and pretending that Hussein was living up to his end of the UN resolutions from 1992 to present, and pretending that the current state of the Middle East is the fault of me, as a living, breathing Westerner, changes nothing.

Things are also different today from what you seem to believe they are -- believe it or not.
