O'Neill: Bush planned Iraq invasion before 9/11
Article at CNN
Well, that's an interesting read.
"From the very beginning, there was a conviction that Saddam Hussein was a bad person and that he needed to go," O'Neill told CBS, according to excerpts released Saturday by the network. "For me, the notion of pre-emption, that the U.S. has the unilateral right to do whatever we decide to do, is a really huge leap."
This is a huge leap. The US for the longest time maintained a hands-off policy of not wanting to get involved. This makes me wonder if Bush Jr. is more interested in just "smoting" enemies than looking for diplomatic avenues of solving conflict.
Anyways, might be an interesting read.
