However, there is no proof that AQ and Iraq were connected pre 9/11. The commision even found this.

That isnt what the commission said. Look it up. Also AQ doesnt equal all terrorists. Iraq had ties with terrorists before AQ came to the forefront.

yes Iraq had ties with palestian islamic groups, in fact Saddam gave the families of suicide bombers money, but he supported them because he disliked Israel, not for religious reasons.

The most basic way I can put it, is if there was a case for going into Iraq, and that is a big if, then there is a case for going into nearly every single arab country.

It was more than just Palestinians. so what if he did it because he didnt like Israel. Its still support of terrorism.

Untrue. We still have other options with other countries. We were tapped out in Iraq. Diplomacy had failed, sanctions were a joke.

I was a big supporter of the Afghanistan war, but the whole Iraq thing, especially the 'shock and awe' part made me sick, even at the time. I just didn't think 'intelligence' was a good enough reason to go to war. I did, however, think that someone standing up and laughing and boasting about how he smashed two planes into your buildings was a good reason to go to war. Nothing that has happened since has changed my mind on that.

Salt i agree the connection wasn't as strong as the case was first made, but Osama and Hussein did know each other.

If that is grounds for an invasion, the DoD better get ready to defend itself.

This post just goes to prove the old adage:

Intelligence is inversely proportional to looks.
