text: i wonder how many honestly believe we are fighting "them" over there to avoid fighting "them" over here. remember iraq had nothing to do with 9/11.  if anything we turned iraq into a cause and breeding ground for anti us terrorism.  in a while we may end up like the russians did in afghanistan. i agree with you, there was no reason to go to iraq in the first place. however many people still believe the repuglican talking point that we are fighting them over there to prevent them from coming here which is an out and out lie. but with the repuglican propaganda machine cranked up with the likes of rush limbaugh and fox news i guess you have to expect it. the truth will come out in history when george bush has been outed for what he is and that is a war criminal that should have to answer for his crimes against the iraqi people and his crimes against humanity.
