Funny, that's exactly what many have said about terrorism.

Yup, that is correct. And what is the proper response to terrorism? Invading a country that had nothing to do with the terrorist attack on America, or going after the terrorist threat itself? Don't answer that. You'll only paint yourself into a further corner. [/b][/quote]
I'm not in a corner Lanny.
The US and it's allies have been going after the terroist threat itself...all over the world. To date, 3/4 of the known Al-Qaeda leadership have been captured or killed.
Iraq may not have been involved in the attack on the US, but it was harboring a terrorist who killed a US citizen in a terrorist act and it's 'unanimously elected' leader was funding terroist attacks on our allies.
Said leader was also known to be in posession of copious amounts of really bad stuff and did not account for it's whereabouts or it's destruction when prodded to do so umpteen times by International Law that you hold so dear...yet the law was not enforced. Ever.
That's enough for me...it might not be for you...that's fine.
