AW: AW: Not Just About Iraq (Was: London)

[Otto]

It would be inappropriate too to lay the blame for those attacks on Bush or
Blair. Primarily responsible are those who planned and did it.

But I don't think that it has been Rich's intention to lay the blame on
Bush, in my reading he was pointing to all those hollow words we hear from
Bush since 9/11.

I agree that we are now in a quagmire.  And I agree that the Iraq war has 
made the world less safe by creating an unstable environment with the 
potential to become a breeding ground for exporting more terrorism.  But to 
*link* the London attack to the US's incompetance at waging war and the US's

inability to protect its friends sure seems like laying blame to me.  And it

also rings hollow as anexpression of sympathy for the victim.
