I agree with that, and while Iraq had no known involvement with 9/11, they did fund suicide bombers.
...but then we need to hurry up and get into Saudi Arabia, who gives a hell of a lot more money to suicide bombers and their families, including those of the 9/11 hijackers.
But you don't see our administration itching to invade that country anytime soon.
