That means, we had no right to attack Iraq because we "thought" they "might" have WMDs in 5 or 10 years.
We need a 100% immediate withdrawl of all troops&civilians from the country. No foreign force has ever been able to effectively occupy a country with any success. It is not "Al-Qaeda" fighting us, it is a pissed off Iraqi population that wants us out of their country which we wrongly invaded. It would be no different if China invaded the United States, many of us would be taking up arms against them until they left. I know myself like many Americans would rather us all die before we let a foreign tyrant have control of our country. That is what we are to the Iraqi's, foreign tyrants, they do not view us as liberators, thats only the propaganda that you hear at 6pm on Fox News every night...
