Reports indicate our troops were in this area for about 1hr, and did not have this located on their map to be searched.
Nobody says it was GWB's fault, but it is part of the mismanagement of a war that NEVER should have taken place. We rushed in, claimed we'd be welcomed with open arms, the terrorist in the Mid-East poured into Iraq, and now we have a huge mess and huge, huge expense on our hands. It's called MISMANAGEMENT.
GWB wanted to get control of the world's 3rd largest supply of oil, and after 911 he saw an opportunity. How many excuses did he float to sell his Iraqi invasion to the American people? 15-20? Once he landed on the WMD story and saw how that freightened people, that's the one he ran with.
Would you re-hire someone who badly mismanaged a situation, causing the death of +1050? Would you re-hire someone who lied to you? Of course you wouldn't.
