What some people don't understand is that you do not use a template to determine who to "go after." You take each situation on its own merits. Each situation is unique. Decisions will be made about each as it is necessary to do so.

The only criteria I use is whether or not the nation or group in question is a threat to US National Security. Iraq's support of terrorism and involvement in terrorist attacks on US soil was the reason I supported Operation Iraqi Freedom. On the other hand, if it was just about enforcing UN resolutions on WMDs or even just liberating the Iraqi people from a brutal dictator, I probably would've opposed the war.

If you thought I opposed the war, you need to reread that post.

I didn't say that you opposed the war. I read your post and understood what you said. You also asked why we don't go after other countries that have WMD. The answer is, as I stated, each country will and should be judged on its own merits.
