If memory serves, the Iraqi military had more than 500 munitions dumps scattered throughout the country, with hundreds of thousands of weapons and explosives of all types.
What measures would YOU have taken to make certain that NONE of them were stolen?
Did it never occur to you that the suicide bombers and "insurgents" had to have a "source" of supply for their explosives? Where did you THINK they were getting them...the local A&B?
If you are complaining that planning for the post-war period did not allow for enough troops to secure the towns and the military depots are you also beaching about the mobilization of national guard units to provide additional troops?
With the U.S. military's manpower needs at the critical stage, I must ask why I should be expected to elect a man who voted to cut the military and intelligence budgets in 1993?
Is it in our best interests, during this time of war and crisis, to place a pacifist in the White House?
The nations most critical of the Iraqi invasion by the U.S. have been proven to have had major government officials conducting shady or illegal business deals with Saddam Hussein. Should Americans elect a president who is going to play kissey-face with the leaders of these same countries?
Why do you consider it a mistake to remove from power a government that practiced mass murder against its citizens and subsidized terrorist movements in the Middle East?
