I agree with you. The justification that we are killing our guys over there so they won't get killed here makes no sense.
First: the terrorists were not in Iraq. Saddam was an enemy to Bin Laden. They had no terrorists in Iraq before we let them in.
Second: The logic is flawed. They are suggesting that we lured the terrorists from other countries to Iraq so we could fight them there. Which means, we used innocent Iraq men, women, and children as human shields. Think about that concept. It is a stunning admission, if true (which of course it isn't--its another attempt at justifying the biggest miscarriage of power our country has known). And of course, that also means we are sacrificing our men and women by using them as bait to attract terrorists like flies in a web.
Third: by sending most of our national guard away--we are less safe here, and more likely to be attacked. Katrina showed us the weakness.
Fourth: terrorist attacks across the world have risen since the invasion.
The lies and rhetoric continue as the death toll rises. The only thing this administration does is spin. When you unpack and examine this specific spin--like them all--you will find lies and flawed logic. I wish more people would examine what they spin rather than swallow and nod.
