Richard Clarke (former Chief Anti-terrorist Advisor) told him that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. A majority of America told him the same thing. Just gotta read the bold print:
So, I read your post and was surprised to hear, especially after the drama surrounding the 9/11 Commission, that our president was making explicit connections to Sept 11th with the war in Iraq and I decided to view the video on CNN of his speech
( ... )
I'm glad you looked into it and thanks for your input!
What I wrote was: "...he connected the terrorists to Iraq." He did not say that the terrorist responsible for 9/11 came from Iraq, but he did make the connection.
Read here: " After September the 11th, I made a commitment to the American people: This nation will not wait to be attacked again. We will defend our freedom. We will take the fight to the enemy. Iraq is the latest battlefield in this war. Many terrorists who kill innocent men, women, and children on the streets of Baghdad are followers of the same murderous ideology that took the lives of our citizens in New York, in Washington, and Pennsylvania. There is only one course of action against them: to defeat them abroad before they attack us at home. Note that I watched and read his speech, and listened to commentaries afterwards. If we are in fact after the people that attacked us (as he mentions), then shouldn't he be after Osama? Somehow we jumped into Iraq. I know we are trying to do good. We are also doing harm
