An excellent article in which solid research yielded data more credible than all the biased journalism written to peddle justifications for the war: "So there weren’t weapons of mass destruction; will you believe a war on terrorism? Okay, so there weren’t any terrorists before we showed up; how about spreading democracy?" I have unequivocally opposed the invasion of Iraq from the moment it was announced, believing it to be an un-American war–our country usually doesn't cast itself as conquering hero: "...and they shall strew rose pedals at our feet." In face of administration rhetoric that never matched reality and massive efforts to discredit those daring to voice opposition, there were times I felt alone in the universe with my belief that this was a false war. Turns out I wasn’t alone wondering what the Hell we’re doing in Iraq, wondering why we even invaded in the first place. Try this justification: Could it be a Halliburton invasion for control of oil? It’s no more ridiculous than anything else expressed so far.
