See, you HAVE to do that, becuse you cannot defend your position. You HAVE to shift what I said into I am telling people to "get over" the attack, which I not only DIDN'T say, I SPECIFICALLY said that was NOT what I was saying.
Let me try something simpler, though you will probably not "get" this either. I see NOTHING wrong with a parent who lost a child being upset about seeing the child's grave stone. I would find it odd that they would get upset about seeing ANY gravestone. Get it? Nothing wrong with still being emotionally effected by the attack. But to get upset, or even think ANY picture of ANY plane near ANY building is in poor taste is CRAZY and completely unreasonable.
"I do not see what happened a day 10 years ago as a cow or a horse but you are free to have your opinion that everyone should just "get over it"
The people at the 9/11 Memorial, and MANY MANY people have been milking the CRAP out of 9/11 from the moment it occured.

You are correct. The war in Iraq was about a repeated failure to follow UN resolutions regarding WMD's and UN inspectors over a 15 year period.

And we already KNOW the government lied about WMD sooooo, your point dear? You believe everything the government tells you? You're from Germany right? You believe what the naz'is told their people too? Puh-leeze.
Invading Iraq (yet AGAIN) had about as much to do with 9/11 as I have to do with discovering the sun.

I would take it a step further and point out that AL Qaeda and its leader Osama rose to popularity because of the constant presence of U.S. troops in Saudi Arabia, the holy land of Islam. Why were they present? Because we had to maintain a constant air presence in Iraq to keep that psycho from gassing his own people.
Legally - saddam's failure to live up to his agreement under the cease fire was the grounds for the war (which was in part regarding WMDs, but by no means all). I think I read (forgive me it was a while back) that there were 47 terms under that cease fire agreement that he had failed to live up to and 3 had to do with WMDs.
That said - I was not a fan of the war in Iraq. I thought that we waited this long - why not wait until we made significant strides in Afghanistan? Is the military getting too much rest? Have a necessary air campaign whenever he gets too rowdy, but not commit to anything until we can focus on it exclusively.
-------------------- Forgiveness is...letting go of the hope that the past can be changed.
