Bombing Iraq here and there and invading, occupying and getting bogged down in a quagmire are two different things. And no, Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, but the American people were led to believe that it did.

I see, so killing civilians with no just cause by air is fine but ground troops make it different
can you show us where we were led to believe that Iraq had something to do with 9/11

I didn't say Clinton's bombings were okay. I'm saying that the American people would support that action without a 9/11. An occupation? That required another Pearl Harbor event. As for finding proof that Bush conflated Iraq and 9/11, I'm having a hard time finding good youtube clips of it. There weren't many instances in which Bush and Cheney explicitly linked the two. They were very careful about it most of the time. While stating their case for the Iraq war, they would mention 9/11 here and there so that the listener would make the connection in their mind and then Bush and Cheney could claim plausible deniability if anyone asked the question. For instance..............
Here's a USA Today poll from 2003 which shows that 70% of Americans believed Iraq was involved in 9/11.

which means what, only 30% of america can follow what's going on and that that 70% will believe what ever they wish to believe
remember desert storm, the US wasnt attacked, Kuwait was yet US troops moved into iraq without us having to be attacked and many americans supported it

You really think the American people would have supported Bush had he pushed for war in Iraq before 9/11? I doubt it.
they didnt seem to have an issue with clintoon bombing Iraq through the 90s and most disagreed with bush sending troops into Iraq in 2003, the vast majority had no problem with bush going into afghanistan in 2001, you seem to have your conflicts mixed up. Iraq wasnt about 9/11
i was actually going to say that. that was a bit later. we had no problem with Afghanistan after 9-11, Iraq was a different story. but yes, if not for 9-11 i'd have imagined the afghan war being a little less popular. a lot of people thought that it was cruel of people to protest the war when Vietnam was going on, that soldiers deserved more respect, but i actually thought it was a very useless war and thought it was cool that so many people protested it, of course i wasn't born then, but still respect it.
now protesting the soldiers, was a different story, most of those people were drafted and didn't want to be there, but protesting the war in general was really cool. i wish more people did more shit like that more often

that says a great deal considering you were in the army. most old people when i tell them this war is useless give me the whole "you young people today don't understand that people fight for your freedom" and it always make laugh for one, and want to say stfu secondly
i mean honestly if there was a draft, I'D be fighting this war for THEIR freedom, now maybe in vietnam when they were younger, that's a different story, but not in this day and age, and i'll tell you what...
no way would i want to be in another country fighting some stupid war and people back home getting the idea that i am murdering people and watching my friends die/becoming maimed by war/ dieing in war for a real reason. if it was world war 2 and i was saving millions of jews, that is a different story, but for THIS bullshit? no way
idk... whatever

yeah, bush is a real f*** up. when people start suggesting that obama is a worst president than bush, i often want to smack them very hard. i'm not saying obama is a good president, he has screwed up quite a few things, and is a very disappointing person, HOWEVER, I STILL don't think he is as bad as george bush, bush was pretty aweful. i mean god damn........

there hasnt been a war for american freedom in more than a century, the only war in the last 60 years for actions against america is afghanistan and even then it's not really afghanistan that committed the act. everything since WWII has been United Nations/Nato actions with america being the dominant force, often times it's humanitarian missions like somalia, ensuring food got to the people as opposed to the hands of war lords or like bosnia where the campaign was to stop millions from being killed but others like Korea, Viet Nam or Iraq, pointless wars we had no business in... you're pretty much spot on
