Bush response to 9/11 prevented more attacks

True.

This is incorrect, it is now known  Al queda had training facilities in Iraq.  You know the old saying, "The enemy of my enemy....."

Those training facilities were in Kurdish territory. The same people Hussein used chemical weapons on.

Basically you don't believe our Government when they announce these ties.(I'm concluding)

You'd rather believe people like Aziz?  Hussein?

I'd rather believe George Tenet.

 

Here again we disagree. I don't see how we can debate this to agreement, however.  It comes down to two basic ideas.  I believe that Iraq was aiding and abetting terrorists  and you do not.

That's about it.

However, I wouldn't be at all surprised to hear that Al Qaeda is working with people in Iraq right now.

Evar hear of the "Prevention of Genocide Act" the title says it all, those damn Liberals.

The funny part about the rediculous arguement from the liberals about "taking on more serious threats like NK" would be if we actually DID!?  No diplomatic communications, sanctions, etc. like we had with Iraq for 12 years via the UN, just go in and take them.  Can you imagine the girly screams from the left if we had? OMG...that would have been a syndicated replay for decades to come!

Rip,
watch out when you use the term liberal. You can offend someone.

Liberal: Someone who has liberal views is tolerant of different behaviours or opinions, and believes people should be free to do or think as they like

Which is just the opposite meaning of what they actually do in America.  In America, its "What can we do to push their intolerance".

Al-Qa‘ida’s finances are also being squeezed. This is due in part to takedowns of key moneymen in the past year, particularly the Gulf, Southwest Asia, and even Iraq.

George Tenet said this.  Do you think these money men weren't in place prior to our invasion?
