Sorry to disagree guys , but there was not one Iraqi national onboard those planes and they were not a threat, was a he ruthless dictator and am I glad he is out of power? Yes, but if he had WMD, they are still out there because we don't have them, we don't have Saddam and by going to war with a country that was not a root cause of the terrorism
N.korea is a huge threat not only as a nation but selling their technologies to terrorist as well. There are a lot of Big root terrorist countries that need to be taken care of but won't be. With out doing so we will never rid ourselves of terrorism.
I find these two statements at odds. First, all the terrorist on the planes were trained in and funded by Iraq. That is documented. Iraq is a know terrorist state and have been so identified by the US, England, Germany, and France. The UN had even sanctionded them for their terroist activities. You are completely right that Saudi has unofficially aided in all this, and they will eventually be dealt with. As Bush said, any nation that aids or harbors terrorist will have to deal with us. Iraq is the most pressing of problems right now, so we are dealing with it and as anyone that has been there will tell you the insurgents are from all over the muslim world, not many are from Iraq. That is set as ground zero, and we are dealing with that first. North Korea will more than likely be the third or forth target in line. Right now our eyes are trained on Iran because that is where so many of the activities that took place in Iraq was relocated to. Check todays stories about the UN warning of the chemical delivery capability and weapons Iran now has available. Ask the French, German's, and Russians that were moving something from Iraq to Iran just days prior to our bombing of Iraq. The only mistake in Iraq was that we waited so long to do it period. But that is just my humble opinion.
