what we're doing in Iraq, there having been no proven connection

terrorism and Iraq.

Yes, there is. I'd surely call disregarding international law, attacking
and invading a country without a reason and killing thousands of
innocent
civilians terrorism.

Yeah, sorry...I should have been more specific. "No proven connection
prior
to our invasion of Iraq between terrorism by Islamic radicals and Iraq".


Well yes, actually, there was a proven connection even during Clinton's
time. Saddam regularly paid bounties to the families of suicide bombers for
Hamas and offered rewards for anyone who would kill Americans.

Ahh, right. The Hamas. Remind me again...they were the ones that planned
the 9/11 attacks then? Oh, no...it wasn't them, was it?

I'm still waiting for the "connection" that explains why we're in Iraq now.

I doubt it will surface for many years. The president said he would still have
invaded even if he had known there were no WMDs and no connection between Al Quaida
and Sadam, so I'd say the real reasons for the invasion are things that haven't been
made public by the administration. Lots of other people have advanced theories,
though.

been looking for it.

In fact, Kerry has said the same thing.
