I dont see why clinto should'nt have gone after al queda in afghanastan seeing as there was a direct link to them. We had many awful terrorist attack some were attacks on mititary targets, his seeming lazyness and non-caring about these incidents is what pissed me off.

And on Bosnia I supported that action, I should have said that this is an after the fact thing that makes me glad I became a Republican, during and after the Afghan campaign Dems were complaining about civilian casualties, where were the Republicans whining about civ. casualties during the Bosnian campaign? thats right there were'nt any. The arguement of the who arming of the enemy is getting old, you cant say that giving Saddam some money and some other stuff made him invade Kuwait or gas the Kurds...so on. There was trade between England and the U.S. between the the revolution and the war of 1812 and we ended up fighting them, we gave oil to the Japanese (though we stopped that) which no doubt later on was used to help invade other countries. And to people who think this war is to divert attention from the war on terror, its not, its part of it...and the war on terror is not one which will be won quickly no it will be ongoing...it could be many years before we could claim a sort of victory, a Dem. could be in office and have the war on terror still going on, say we get into a tiff with N.Korea will people you would have to say "hes diverting attention" if you follow that line of logic.
