Huh? I'm not sure where you are headed with this response James...

Try to look at it from this veiw (the one I do) Every one kept asking

 "Why did we go to Iraq. (and screamed Bush wanted oil) and not Iran or Korea ? They are the ones with Nukes"

Well there is a valid point there that Iran and North Korea are countries that pose the threat the Bush administration invented about Iraq. Oil also stands out as a rather large and valuable difference between these three countries. These are obvious facts James, they are not spun or made up and should not be overlooked.

 Well I think they answered their own Question. See Bush dont want a NUKE fight! No way! He knows These people would Nuke our troops and their own people, we would have lost 3/4 of our military, and opened the last can of worms.It would be over. 1 nuke gets another. No one wants that.

Actually James, I've never seen an administration that seems to want to unleash some nuclear firepower more than this one. No, they don't want to use our present nukes, they want to build smaller tactical nukes they can use without wiping out an entire region. See, they built the first set of nukes using the old Strangelove Doomsday theory, that they be potent enough to wipe entire countries off the map. Yeah, nobody wants to use those, they want fun little "baby" nukes to play with. How does it make sense to be building more nukes when we are preaching to the rest of the world that we want to put an end to nuclear proliferation? On that issue alone people with even minor amounts of common sense should be questioning just what the hell Bush and friends are doing. How are we a "beacon of freedom" or the "great city on the hill" to the rest of the world when we are building smaller WMD's we can actually use on them? That is truly insane.

 It scared Lybia when we went into Iraq. We finish and Iran gats worried because were now next door. Korea see's were not playing, China's talking trash to them too. then every thing goes into a stalemate.Kinda like the cold war.

This is quite an interesting paragraph James because you start with a couple of promotional items and end with an interesting bit of truth. First, the idea that we have Iran and Libya shaking in their boots is just something the GOP would like you to believe to make you feel all warm and fuzzy. Angry is more like it. Iran is parading weapons around in the street with banners that say Israel must be wiped off the map and that they will take down the evil USA. Plus our complete mishandling of Iraq has made these other nations believe if we are having a hard time there we'd never go after them. So, this whole war with Iraq is having the opposite effect of what you are stating. I like the cold war bit at the end though because basically these guys we have running the "War on Terror" are guys that are old cold warriors. See there is no other super power in the world we have to play cold war with anymore. There is no longer a reason to build WMD's because those are designed to fight a country and have that threat of if you attack us we'll attack you...like we used to have with Russia, right. Well, terrorists are not like that, they are all over the world in practically every country. It's a threat that's hard to pinpoint without worldwide cooperation, sharing of intelligence, teamwork. The Bush administration has ignored this and decided instead to sell more weapons to Israel and develop smaller nukes they can use so "we don't need mass armies anymore."   

Kinda leads you to believe they don't know what the hell they are doing doesn't it? Of course they could have a "secret plan" we don't know about right? One that includes leaking intelligence info to the press, burning your own CIA agents and foreign agents, and selling more weapons to the one nation that these terrorists and the entire planet believes we always look the other way for...amoung other things. Yeah, I can see that.
