11. actually
you said "Since there are no WMD that is our last refuge"

Untrue. When Bush used tax payer dollars to fly in a plane to the aircraft carrier that was coming to him rather than waiting for it or taking a uncool helicopter, he said it was worth taking out Saddam because evil dictators need to be dealt with. In one sentence he admitted that the WMDs was flaky, and so was the terrorist connection. That is their last refuge. When all is said and done, I will be surprised if a hundred thousand are not dead in Iraq.

Bush says there is a foreign element entering the country. Last time I checked, we are the foreign element. So basically we have turned the country into a war training ground where non-Iraqis (us) fight with non-Iraqis (fighters looking to attack us) at the expense of the Iraqi people. I don't remember the Iraqi people asking to be liberated in return for us using their streets to fight the war on terrorism. Doesn't seem like a fair trade if you ask me.
