"Going in and occupying Iraq, thus unilaterally exceeding the U.N.'s mandate, would have destroyed the precedent of international response to aggression we hoped to establish. Had we gone the invasion route, the U.S. could conceivably still be an occupying power in a bitterly hostile land. It would have been a dramatically different--and perhaps barren--outcome."
-George Bush Sr.

Filtherton funny how u can say that after Saddam used the nukes on the west he would have sold to al-quaida had Iraq been invaded. Weird how any americans can speak after the 3rd world war, which occured due to the fact no one acted fast enough, and now USA is a barren land and europe is now at war with the uprisen masses of asia and africa after decades of doing nothing.
dude there is no proof of WMD, so there never was any? if i was Saddam and i knew i couldnt win the stalemate and keep power and i had any weapons id give them to the ppl most likely to use them after i was deposed. Is it going to take a nuclear weapon going off in ur back yard before u can say, 'ah maybe we just couldnt find them'
