I thought you were critical of going into Iraq when the job was 'unfinished' in Afghanistan.
Well, yes, I am critical of that. And also of spending ridiculous resources and stretching us thin in a country that was no threat and had nothing to do with 9/11. Still not sure how that applies to that article.
For the record, I don't buy into the whole thing that Bin Laden was in Tora Bora and we let him off the hook. I think our guys did their best under the circumstances. What's a shame is that our focus, resources, expendable divisions went to Iraq.
I said from the beginning that finding Bin Laden could very well prove almost impossible. I don't hold it against this admin that they haven't been able to find this one man and I never have.
I *do* have huge questions about why the focus went from terrorist organizations to Saddam for no apparent reason.
