I’m not Bill Clinton In Trump Everything I said about the Iraq war has also been said by Trump. He called it stupid and a disaster. Among other things, he pointed out that we took out Iran’s no 1 enemy - Saddam. You need to direct your Bush-defending arguments to Trump,
So, now you want to weasel out of your statements and just deflect to Trump?
Trump is doing the same thing in the ME as W did: Win!
I don't see him shutting down operations and bringing everyone home. That's what a CIC would do if he truly believed it was "stupid" to fight in the ME.
Are you denying that Trump called Bush’s Iraq invasion a disastrous blunder?
You’re right. I was responding to the two posters in 55.
What about the other wars?
Muslim radicals had just murdered close to 3000 unarmed innocents. I suppose since you didn’t know any of the victims Bush should have responded with a bit of hand wringing.
The rest of America knew the Iraq war was a disaster and Bush was a dunce to start it.””
That is absolutely not true.
Iraq had nothing to do with 911. Bin Laden and hijackers were Saudis. But Bush invaded Iraq and kept playing kiddy face with the Saudis
Iraq was harboring many Al Qaeda training camps and the Saudis were intimately involved in them, You may have heard of OBL, an Al Qaeda leader and also a Saudi that was run down, not in Saudi Arabia, but in Pakistan.
Saddam and Osama hated each other. I’m done conversing with you, based on your ignorance. Have a nice life and keep honoring George Bush if that’s your coping mechanism
I’ve heard all the left’s arguments but what I know is what my friend, a Col who was on the UN inspection team, making 37 trips to Iraq. He was there, you were not. You simply parrot the old media empires narrative used to discredit Bush. We’ve already heard it all 50 times from the old media.
