It's not just my opinion, there are many who didn't believe Saddam had weapons. And if you think everyone truly believed that Saddam had those weapons, you're a fool. Our own leaders knew he didn't have them, for christ's sake.

Also, I draw no distinction between W's falsely premised invasion of Iraq and Clinton's killing thousands if not millions via starvation and bombs - all in the name of the same WMD. I mean killing is killing. But, yes, W went a big step further than Clinton, though that step is meaningless to those who died over the last 15 or so years.

I agree to an extent and, as you know, I'm not a fan of Clinton and find him to be just as murderous as the Bushbots. But I find the impact of an actual invasion of Iraq to be a bit more devastating than that of airstrikes. This is something that will never be "won" and people are going to look back at this as a mess of monumental proportions. We've f*cked things up in the Middle East beyond repair.
