If, then

IF the following line of thought expressed by Jack Cashill and Laurie Mylroie is correct, THEN we had no choice but to remove Saddam, and rather quickly.

The sites are obviously partisan and somewhat less than pristine but most of the facts are independently verifiable. One morsel of fact that's not easily verifiable resides within the halls of our code breaker complex in DC, where certain people simply must know whether TWA800 was an accidental crash or a terrorist attack, and if the latter, the responsible party. One probably works at Langley these days.

Amisdt all the brouhaha over ABC's 9/11 movie and Clinton's subsequent Fox News meltdown the fact remains that Ramzi Yousef and KSM were not members of AQ when they plotted and tried to bring down the WTC towers in 1993. Bin Laden was never charged. Perhaps the reason Clinton was so animated in the interview was because Wallace never asked him about the real killers.

But wonder if any of the above, if true, would matter to this Marine or his fellow comrades? Maybe not. Maybe it's all a part of that oft-mentioned greater good.
