It is possible that Iraq was taken only as a strategic location (other than the oil) to be able to get an entrance into Iran. Ofcourse, that isn't working out too well since a sectarian civil war has started and we're stuck in a 2 front war which may possibly become a 3 front war if NK blows up a nuke. America's enemies are obviously watching for all our weaknesses and right now a lot of them have been exposed.

Israel wasn't able to deal any heavy blow to Hezbollah either and they aren't feared as much now. The only resort most of the world's idiot powers have to any decisive victory are nukes because the battle field is slowing levelling.

No, I don't think we're safer not only because of an increased threat of terrorists, or because of the lack of money but because of the laws that have come into place that can potentially be used against Americans by, if not bush, then any corrupt leader of the US in the future.

Terrsts hate us for our freedoms so we obviously have to give them up and then they'll leave us alone.
Civil war is good. How do you think the British empire controlled the world? A soldier in every house? It was by playing people against one and other and then leaving the winning team in control as a proxy or by killing off the winner themselves.

Iraq is central to the war on terror, Afghanistan is not. Afghanistan is a shithole in the middle of some mountains with some people growing opium. Iraq is an actual somewhat civilized nation that can become a powerful ally once we get it set up.

The war isnt about oil, thats just a silly democrat/nutroot liberal talking point. Think for yourself.
