That just sounds crazy given that our first retaliation for 9/11 was Iraq. Which had nothing to do with 9/11, and further...no "WMDs".
- yyyk 5y agoThis doesn't remove responsibility from Al-Q's Iraqi associate - Al-Zarqawi - and his insane anti-everybody-who-isn't-Sunni-Muslim war which directly bred ISIS.

- adventured 5y ago> That just sounds crazy given that our first retaliation for 9/11 was Iraq. The first retaliation for 9/11 was not Iraq. That's a really bizarrely inaccurate claim. The US invaded Afghanistan and removed the Taliban from control of the country by the end of 2001. Operation Enduring Freedom launched in October 2001. The Iraq invasion was 2003. The US initially sent its special forces into Afghanistan shortly after 9/11 to work with the Northern Alliance to route the Taliban and pursue bin Laden, and then invaded.
