In retrospect do you see the Bush administration as warmongering?

Iraq didn't have anything to do with 9/11. I suppose a criminal investigation will never be on the table unless we elect someone better than Obama.

Um yes... It could have something to do with the fact that we started two wars on the other side of the planet, at the same time.

Yes it was a damaging and demoralizing attack on 9/11. Yes it was a shock to the world. But maybe involving us in occupying two countries at the same time for almost 10 years straight, costing thousands of US soldiers their lives, was a bit of an overreaction.

Perhaps they could have toned it down a bit and maybe stuck with just one bloody occupation instead of two?

Well since he had a nearly 90% approval raiting at the begining of afghanistan and in the mid 60's for Iran. I think that pretty much he did what most ppl would have done in those circustances. So no, I dont see him as warmongering.
