In response to bush being simple, just like us, and having the will to invade Iraq, you have to question his motives like you would any other president. Al Qaida was based in Afghanistan. Period. Sure Saddam was evil, but does Iraq seem any safer or more friendly towards america just because we're there? no. in fact its more dangerous than ever. it doesnt take any great person to commit to war, just an ignorant one. Have you noticed how bush never really talks about many things except ina broad sense. its all freedom this and evildoers that, he even said "im a war president, i go to the office with war on my mind" and, "this guy tried to kill my dad" (referring to saddam). it sure is easy to support a war thats thousands and thousands of miles from even affecting the u.s. at all. but think of all the people still dieing in order to "secure" the country. would you give your life for such a trivial cause? the war on terror wasnt even aimed at the terrorists who attacked us directly. and saddam was "probably planning" to develop a program in oreder to develop weapons. i dont hate the man, i just hate the fact that hes probably the most powerful man in the world.

This was the ultimate reason W Bush wanted to go after Suddam. I do, however, believe we were right in going after the terrorists in Afghanistan that initiated the whole deal . Everything after that was unneccesary. Who ever declared the US world police anyway? What is the UN for if the US takes care of world affairs by its self?
