So what if...

Can you provide evidence that he wasn't or that it didn't?



Nope, but given a lack of evidence either way, it would seem prudent to not kill tens of thousands of people, including >1000 of our own. If it's our policy to attack anyone who we can't prove isn't going to attack us, we've got an awful lot more fighting to do.

>We went as a preemptive strike so another 9/11 doesn't occur.

Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. Even our president has admitted that.

And thus starts the conservative telephone game:

C: We invaded Iraq in retaliation for 9/11.

L: Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11.

C: Well, that doesn't matter! Iraq might have launched _another_ 9/11.

L: Pretty much every analyst before the war determined Iraq was not a threat to the US.

C: Well, that doesn't matter! Saddam had WMD's.

L: Our best efforts over the course of a year has discovered no traces of a WMD program.

C: Well, that doesn't matter! We invaded because he killed and tortured thousands.

L: We killed thousands and re-opened Abu Ghraib's torture chambers.

C: That's irrelevant! We invaded Iraw in retaliation for 9/11!

(Repeat ad nauseum.)

Iraq may not have had direct involvement with 9/11, however, it is not disputed that Iraq did knowingly provide safe haven to some of the terrorist scum who were known to have had direct involvement with 9/11. Your statement, I feel, is not entirely honest.
