I don't get it. Do you want those who oppose the war to hypI don't get it. Do you want those who oppose the war to hypothetically support the war if things were different?

1. WMD: I do not support preemption as a strategy in any countries foreign policy. Thus if WMD had been found in Iraq, I don’t believe I would have supported the way, although I’m sure many who oppose it now might change their mind if WMD was found.

2. 9/11: If, in another dimension, Saddam had been the mastermind behind 9/11, that would be considered an act of war upon the country in which it took place. Therefore, I would support retaliatory measures against that country.

3. Hasn’t Saddam already been captured and his army dismantled?

If any of these things were different, would Iraqi’s respond any differently? I doubt it. It’s their country. Their defending it. I don’t think any country in the world would let another country overthrow it even if the country being overthrown was in the wrong.

The groups could be undermining everything to make it seem as nothing had been gained I suppose. I really don’t know.

Then again, your statements are hypothetical, and thus, does it matter?
