We have killed 3 times more Iraqi civilians (see Body Count) liberating them than died on 911. More importantly, Iraq was never linked to those attacks. In other words, our invasion of Iraq was unjust.
Several prominent Republicans came to that conclusion and the latest to do so is Senator Doug Bereuter.
Senator Doug Bereuter regrets Iraq assault
One fact that confuses me is why nobody has bothered to accuse Bush of abusing the war powers he had. As I understand it he was empowered to punish those responsible for 911 and never established a link between Iraq and 911. So I ask the question, "How is the Iraq invasion legal either?"
