It has been proven that Sadam was helping to finance Al-Qaeda as well as other terrorist organizations...There's your link...

And...BECAUSE we removed Sadam from power, which left Iraq with no ruler (no control) whatsoever, and allowed the extremists and terrorists to try to gain control of the country, and basically wreak havok and run wild unchecked, we felt it was OUR responsibility to stay and help them to establish their OWN government (free from extremism, and one that would work with and for their people), and to help them fight off the insurgents that felt the country was 'free reign' after Sadam was removed, while building and training their own army so that in the future they could handle these things by themselves...We stayed...And I believe that our soldiers WILL remain there, until Iraq can 'take care' of itself...

That's just silly...Sadam had FAR more capability, money, and power to attack us, than Bin Laden did...If Bin Laden attacked us, so could anyone else...That's why they ALL have to be stopped...

People keep saying the war is about oil and there's no weapons but what nobody seems to think about is that they literally found Saddam in a hole in the ground, I obviously can't be sure about this but I'd put my money on it that there's more than just that one. Who knows maybe there's weapons in those holes, hell maybe Bin Laden is in one of those holes.

The weapons WERE there...Sadam used them on his own people...There's no denying that...
BUT...I doubt that they would be there NOW when Sadam's allies included MANY countries that harbor terrorists and owe Sadam tons of money, as well as many favors...If you think that shit hasn't been passed through Syria...You have to be completely uninformed...
