Em, Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld/Ledeen/Wolfowitz and a whole gang of neocons planned the Iraq war BEFORE 9/11. I don't think there's any doubts left about that.
We were going there for the oil with or without 9/11. It was just so coincidental that they were able to use 9/11 right when they needed it.
Why are you trying to protect Bush/Cheney and their band of war criminals? They got away with their crimes. They sure never fooled any Democrat I ever met.
Btw, what do you mean by 'unintended consequences' regarding the Iraqi people. You do know they had nothing to do with 9/11 and that OBL WANTED the US to attack Iraq being that he hated Saddam Hussein who in his mind, was an infidel.
So why would millions of innocent people deserve to die because of someone else's crime that they had nothing to with? We lost over six thousand troops not counting the allied losses. Did they deserve it also?
Btw, the country we should have attacked IF we were going to attack anyone, was Saudi Arabia.
