The Afghanistan situation IMO deserved TOTAL WAR....if you're a safe haven for people like Bin Laden then there should be merciless bombings of the entire country a scale that Russia didn't even go to. Men, women, children.....no one should have been safe there, they EARNED an old school beat down. We should have bombed them into oblivian and then salted the Earth so nothing would ever grow there ever again. But that's just how I feel
In what way was Iraq a threat to America or its dictatorship allies?

If a substantial number of Americans hadn't bought the bs and dutifully wet the bed over the clear and present threat Saddam posed to them there'd have been no way Bush could have got his oil war on.

Afghanistan is another war Bush started, claimed victory and then lost.
