Default Re: Recent History - U.S vs Iraq

Containing Saddam did cost billions and would have continued to cost billions. In that process American lives would have continued to be put in Jeopardy just as they have for the 12 years prior to Iraqi freedom.

How were we in imminent danger? This point I don't understand.

All your other points are easier to dismiss. First, you have no argument that we invaded Iraq to stop genocide because that happened more than 15 years ago, and we have not seen genocide from Saddam since. Secondly, you have no argument that we invaded Iraq to take out Al Queda in Iraq because they were not there when we invaded and they had no working relationship with Iraq. Many other countries are much more known to support terrorism and many others have much more recently suffered from genocide.
