The invasion of Afghanistan was a necessary step to retaliate against an
attack on American soil, and to stamp out a state-sponsored haven for
Islamic fundamentalist terrorists.

The invasion of Iraq was an optional war, against a country that was
effectively contained, had no WMDs, was nominally cooperating with
inspections. Saddam's secular dictatorship was antithetical to Islamic
fundamentalism, and Islamic fundamentalist terrorists were not operating
significantly in Iraq until we toppled Saddam's regime.

That pretty much describes my position as well. Thanks, Nate.

I'm afraid Bush is now working up to an excuse for invading Iran and
Syria.
