I am not so sure we didnt attack the wrong country, more and more it seems Iran is more dangerous. That part no longer matters. the Iraq war whether justified or not has only forced us to face Islamic Fascists sooner , rather than later.
Those who believe this war with radical Islamics would have never started if we had stayed in the Unbited States are wrong. It just started the festivities before the Jihadi's were ready. The Islamics hated anyone not Islamic long before the US went to Iraq, hell, they even hate each other. We should really be thankful it started before we were infiltrated worse than we are.
Our biggst mistake now IMO is in allowing any more Islamic immigrations or students into this country.
There are hundreds of cells in this country. They all need to be kicked out.
I'm of the opinion our most pressing threat was neither Iran or Iraq, but Pakistan, as it remains today.
It's easy to say Iran is the most serious threat now. But we didn't have resolutions against Iran then, they weren't at the stage they are now or with that maniac in charge at the time. We were forced to look at Saddam's decade of threats about destroying our country and his noncompliance with agreements at the end of the Gulf War. We couldn't just take his word so we took action. If we had such a tough time with Iraq, what would we have had with Iran? We are forced to deal with the Middle East in particular because they live that culture of terrorism and those regimes offer the most likely place for al Qaeda, the terrorism that struck us on 9/11, to get WMD and deal a more severe blow. That's why Demonrats and the people that say only Bin Laden, Afghanistan are the problem got it all wrong because we have to be on offense and take out these barbarians.
