...this most simple of lessons: what you do to others you teach them to do to you, plus give them great incentive to outdo you because they were innocent, or at least did not initiate the violence....where did we ever think that by attacking Iraqi children we would get Iraqis mad at Saddam instead of us! Just because WE hate the guy doesn't mean his people are going to....why wouldn't they hate the one who kills their children and not the one who supposedly made us so mad we had to kill THEIR children? People rally around their leaders when outsiders attack....but then they all knew that. This bullshit rationale was meant for public consumption....Bush knew exactly who the Iraqis were going to hate...that was the whole idea.

...did Americans want to attack Bush for 9/11....?
