Terrorism rose to the top as the new enemy after the fall of the
Soviet Union. 9/11 provided the excuse to demonstrate to all who wish
us ill what the consequences would be. Hussein was thumbing his nose
at the world and the UN resolutions that he agreed to and accepted
after he got his ass kicked in the Gulf War. Chasing bin Laden all
over Afghanistan and Pakistan wouldn't send as strong a message,
although the Taliban were taken care of in short order.

I think the picture is far more complex than you and your like try to
make it out to be.

Bush/Cheney did the right thing. It's hard for to accept by many and
it's used as the excuse for every wrong in the world, but historians
will write the whole story someday and Bush will eventually be
vindicated.

Remember, I am psychic. :-)

Don't press your your luck.
