I re-read your entire post and it does seem like you're blaming Clinton for the 2003 Gulf War.
Quote:That being said, hostilities in Iraq began in 1991 not in 2003.
Seriously?
The 1991 was was a war to fight Iraqi aggression and liberate Kuwait. That was a justified war, done in concert with the UN, pursued only when all other options had failed. It was successfully concluded.
The 2003 war was done without a cause of war, fighting an enemy that had nothing to do with Saddam. Using 1991 to justify the 2003 war would be like invading Japan with the attempted justification of a war started in 1942.
I'm just glad Bush wasn't president during WWII. Japan would have bombed us and Bush would have responded by invading the Soviet Union. Saddam and Bin Laden hated each other and Al Qaida in Iraq was fighting with Saddam before we invaded. Not only did Bush lie us into a war, he did so taking out our enemy's enemy.
