What needs to happen is real social change. This military action I think is an imporatant part of that.

I think u make a good point here. Its nice to place blame and use the benefit of hindsight and say what we should have and could have done..and the fact that there were no WMD's is something Dubya needs to take responsibility for.
At the same time...the fact that ALL the intelligence said the same thing and he personally got a call from Putin saying we were going to get attacked etc. how could he not go in? And this is not all on Bush...didn't Kerry vote to go in as well and say that Hussein was a threat? I'm more concerned with how all those folks (Republican and Democrat) got duped rather than to just point the finger...
