Still Wondering...

I recommend the op-ed peice by David Wallechinsky What Is the Real Reason George Bush Invaded Iraq? Well worth the read.

  1. Again, I thought the resoning was that Saddam was in violation of of U.N. resolutions. Anything on Huffington is suspect. Urge one to go to the source for accurate information:

  2. The present Bush administration is openly hostile to the UN. So was the first Bush administration, for that matter. They've both said that the UN has no right to demand anything. The Bush governments use the "UN resolution" thing when it suits their ends, but otherwise they couldn't care less about UN resolutions.

  3. But this is a CONGRESSIONAL act, Shea. I don't get what you don't understand about it?

  4. What do you mean, "don't understand"? I do understand. That congressional act: the result of a republican controlled congress influenced by cooked "intelligence" by the Bush administration. It's still PNAC bullshit filtered through the congressional amplifier.
