He invaded another country and when we invaded had the strongest army in the ME. He was also thought to have WMD in large quantites and we still don't know where they went. You are insulting some very decent people on this board. Why??

Good grief, my presumably conservative friend.

At the time of our preemptive attack Saddam had been bled dry by over ten years of our blockade and fly-overs.

He most certainly did not have the strongest defense in the region (probably the weakest).

The administration has now finally abandoned all of its silly pretenses for invasion and we are left with the final excuse "democracy for the world". Ready or not.

I see that you cannot admit that Iraq trained Al Qaeda and have forgotten the war on terror's protocol - with us or against us.

Nice attempt at rewriting history with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight.

At the time we were told it was going to be another Nam with 10s of thousands killed on our side. We expected and presumed that he had a fierce Republican Guard that would fight us the entire way and especially street to streed in Bagdud.

As for the WMD why do you think our guys wore Chemsuits the entire time? Your hatred of W is making you say things that are not true.

Pray for W and Our Troops
