[Vision2020] Removing Saddam Increased Al Quada's Power

[SNAFU]

I agree.  If a relationship with the "bad guys" places a country on the 
US's "Terrorist Most Wanted List", than the US should be somewhere near the 
top.  Or doesn't Rumsfeld remember shaking hands with the devil (Saddam 
Hussein) during the Reagan years?  And how about our "alliance" with Saudi 
Arabia?  Does that make us complicit in the recent murders?

Sic 'em, Dubya.

to invade and
bomb that country into submission, the US would be a target.  The US has 
had "contacts"
with Al Quada.

> Regardless of what the White House is saying now, they deliberately gave the 
impression to
the American people that Iraq had something to do with 9/11, and the American 
people
bought it, with a majority at one point thinking Iraq was linked to 9/11.

> But it was known years ago that Bin Laden and his followers disliked Saddam 
and the form
of secularized Islam he represented, in a similar fashion to how much Al Quada 
disliked
Khadafy in Libya.  At one point the British and Al Quada were working together 
to get
Khadafy, the British in part because Khadafy threw out the British and 
nationalized the
oil, and Al Quada because Khadafy was against the purist form of Islam Al Quada 
promotes. 

> 
> It was known long ago that 9/11 was not linked to Saddam's regime.  How many 
times can
people overlook the fact that 15 of the 19 9/11 high jackers were Saudi 
nationals?  How
many times can people overlook the funding of Al Quada that originated from 
Saudi Arabia?
> 
> The US invasion of Iraq is just what Al Quada wanted to inspire their 
movement and gain
new recruits, to prove to other Muslims that the US wants to control the Muslim 
world, so
they could continue with aggressive efforts against the US influence in that 
region.  
> 
> The irony is that now that Saddam is gone, Al Quada has more influence in 
Iraq!  When
Saddam was in power, Al Quada's presence in Iraq was kept under control, with 
Saddam and
Al Quada as enemies.
