Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

>>>using hindsight and your logic, the USSR was no threat, and the lives and money spent on the cold war was completely wasted<<<


Poor analogy since the USSR was unquestionably the central front in the cold war. In contrast to Bush's personal preference of designating Iraq as the central front in the war on terror for reasons only he and Cheney know.

All of which still avoids what we were really talking about - Bush's violation of the war resolution. He never did prove whether or not Iraq posed a threat but he could have had he allowed the inspection team to complete their work.

I've never seen a good explanation to why he pulled them out when he did, even as they were asking for just a bit more time to produce their final assessment. What's your explanation? (I already gave you mine)
