Really? What about the 5k children/year starved to death under the U.N. "Oil for food" scandal? What about Iraqis firing on U.S. planes? What about Iraq housing Zarqawi as a guest after he fled Afghanistan? What about Saddam paying off terrorist families as a gift, after their kids slaughter Jews with suicide belts? What about Saddam welcoming the bomb chemist from the 1993 WTC bombing as a personal guest ('ONLY' 6 killed, 1000 wounded from that terrorist plot). Yes, it was 'all about WMDs' - at least that's all the press told you to believe. What about the Oil? I thought the war was about Oil? Is there more Oil in Iraq or in Afghanistan? Whcih country is more important for Oil production? Haven't we secured the oil in one of the richest oil fields in the world?

Did it ever occur to you that some of the terrorists that gave up in Iraq have returned to Afghanistan, just like Zarqawi fled to Iraq after we routed al Quaeda in Afghanistan in 2001? It's a bit like whack a mole, but with each whack, there are less and less murderous, sick twisted islamic fascists. After Iraq, we'll go kick the shit out of them with greater ferocity in Afghanistan, hopefully until they can't even crawl away.

But from your post I see you prefer slaughtering civilians by remote control in Kosovo. got it.
