"Saddam had had no role in 9-11 or the anthrax attack, no plans to attack us or to invade his neighbors. He was contained by US power and his own weakness. American planes had flown 40,000 sorties in 10 years over Iraq without losing a single aircraft to hostile fire. And Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction"


Any thoughts? Polite, decent and non-flame please.

I do not always agree with old Pat, but in this case I do.

Note: I did originally support the war, on the basis that Saddam had been flauting the UN resolutions. This turns out to have been either bad intelliegence or outright lies. It doesn*t matter which.
