I agree with you except that I also have a problem with the attack on Afghanistan.  So we killed 25,000+ people there who had absolutely nothing to do with 9/11, left about 2-million homeless, and what was the purpose of this?  The people in Afghanistan were never asked if they want Osama bin Laden's group in their country, and this group does not constitute their government.

Moreover, bin Laden never claimed credit for 9/11 and I'm not so sure this "Al-Qaeda" terrorist group even exists.  Bin Laden's group is the Mujahiden, isn't it?  Who is Al-Qaeda?  How do we even know that any Middle-Eastern terrorists were involved in 9/11?  Because Bush told us?  Heck, the same guy also told us that there are WMDs and nuclear weapons in Iraq although nobody seems to be able to find either.

I find it just a tad on the odd side that Bush knows so much about this 9/11 attack.  For example, how does he know that exactly 19 terrorists were involved, which weapons they had, where they're from, and which group they're affiliated with?  Didn't he also tell us that at least 7 of them traveled with fake IDs?  Yet in the same breath Bush tells us he knows who they were?

And with this flimsy excuse for data, we slaughter 25,000+ people in a foreign country?  Why?  Morover, didn't he also say that this supposed Al-Qaeda has pockets in numerous countries?  If that's the case, then why did we zero in on Afghanistan?
