When Facts Get in the Way


Warren Strobel has got an article about a Pentagon-sponsored report tomorrow that proclaims that Saddam Hussein had no link to al Qaida. This is, of course, fairly common knowledge these days but the report is based off of review of captured documents and interrogation of thousands of former Iraqi government officials.


I wish I had more to say on this, but it's just so unbelievably obvious that the war in Iraq has been a meaningless one from the get go. Thousands of American soldiers have died and tens of thousands have returned home permanently maimed. It should also be mentioned that hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians have died. This is all just too sad to put into words.
I hope George W. Bush, John McCain, and the Republican party are proud of all they've accomplished in the name of fighting terror.
