The truth is, the media have it exactly upside down. Far from struggling to link Saddam to 9/11 and the subsequent anthrax threats, the administration is working overtime to postpone the day when the penny drops and people finally twig what a pickle Saddam has put us in. Far from Iraq being a distraction from the War on Terror, the "War on Terror" was invented as a delaying tactic, to postpone dealing with the *real * war, the war that has been ongoing since 1991 -- the war with Saddam Hussein.

"Far from Iraq being a distraction from the War on Terror, the "War on Terror" was invented as a delaying tactic, to postpone dealing with the *real * war, the war that has been ongoing since 1991 ... " That is interesting, I was wondering the same thing - if the campaign in Afghanistan was not always a "sideshow" in the strategic thinking. But too much is secret.
