The War Hawks came up with every angle that we could possibly find to go to war. Both of the main ones (ties b/w Bin Laden and Saddam and WMDs) have been proven wrong.
Alot of people died behind these "unproven" allegations. Don't you think it's time for somebody to come clean?

1) So honestly should we wait until a country has bombs to attack? How in the world can we ever touch the North Koreans?
2) The region, not just Iraq, is a hot bed for terrorism, correct? Shouldn't a transformation in the region follow from changes in Iraq because of it's literal location within the middle east? My only issue with regional transformation is that instead of really devoting themselves to it, America is stretched thin in Iraq and Iran has now become the regional super power and is financing so much of terrorism from Syria to Iraq to Lebanon to Israel.
3) There was evidence that the food for oil program and other restrictions were being skirted and Europeans and Saddam pocketed quite a bit (to be fair, so did some filthy Americans). Combined with an interest to restart his program...and then what? When do we interfere?
4) Someone should come clean? Who? So many people across the political spectrum wanted to go in. There was intelligence that they relied on that they felt it was the right thing to do.
5) Come clean only concentrates on the negative and not the positive. What if real change does come about? I know we're dying in there. It upsets me. But the what if is all about faith and I will wait and see what happens after the election to see whether my faith really shouldn't be there.
