Why re-write history? How many UN resolutions where there befroe we went in guns a blazing? How many times did Sadaam fail to cooperate with inspectors? How many times did Iraq fire at our airforce? How much money did Sadaam give to the families of suicide bombers? How many people did Sadaam kill in his own country? Where we the target when suicide bombers killed red cross volunteers, Iraqi children, women, etc? Did we cause Iraq to invade Kuwait?
The vacuum in Iraq was created because the Iraqi people, muslim people, good people in the ROW won't stand-up and condemn terrorist, they won't fight terrorist, they won't kill terrorists. Heck, in this country we have people who don't even want to "spy" on them.
