It is important for anyone opposed to war for whatever reasons to challenge the Bush administration's characterization of Iran, Iraq, and North Korea as an "axis of evil." While there may be several aspects of these countries' political and social situations with which we may disagree, they are no more "evil" than any other nation. If one were to apply the reasons to the United States that GW gives for wanting to wage war on the nations in his "axis", s/he would most certainly find that the United States also fits many of GW's categories of "evil." It's all a matter of perspective. Indeed, if the export of weapons of mass destruction is a reason to go to war, then the United States, which exports more such weapons than any other country by far, would be fair game for an attack by pretty much any army. Of course, this isn't going to happen (we hope) to the United States, nor should it happen elsewhere.
The USA also keeps fighting their own supplies..
It was the USA that supplied the weapons and training to the Taliban ( source ) to fight off the Soviets..
And what about the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq ??
