Lets stray from the mountains of lame "american pie" style insults and back to some "food for though".
The post September America went from "hunting down Al-Qaeda (sp?)" to "invading iraq to find Al-Qaeda camps etc" to "invading iraq to remove a WMD threat" to "liberating a country and securing freedom".
From an objective P.O.V., as much as can be, this is a stretch.

Since when are the WMD's in Iraq more dangerous than WMD's in Communist China, Comunist North Korea?

Since when are the people in Iraq needing freedom and a release from human rights abuses more so that other countries? Like Zimbabwe, North Korea and China (again), Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Egypt etc.

The same Hussein was assisted by the US in the form of weapons etc. On TV!

The US has supported non-democratic regimes. The US is currently supporting a non democratic regime in Saudi Arabia, in the form of $20 billion foreign aid? What the? A known non-democratic state, that suppresses free speech, womens rights etc etc.
Why was IRAQ more of a threat to world peace than, say, North Korea?Or other "active" terrorist states like Syria, Iran, South East Malaysia, Indonesia, Saudia Arabia?
Or other non-democratic countries like Zimbabwe (have half of you heard about the atrocities that Pres' Mugabe has committed?
Some might say, look at what Iraq has than the other countries don't.
Food for thought.
And all without dropping to the level of a adolescent bully, a level where no one can honestly give you any credit.
Thanks for reading.
