These are unrelated things. I said the argument below was stupid. I still think it is. Sorry.

Somewhere you got the idea that because I mentioned these other countries I was arguing that since they were a threat we should invade Iraq. I never said that. I only brought up those other countrys to show that there were just a few countrys that had regimes who had it in for the US and were a threat. Iraq was on that list. And of that list Iraq was the most threatening and the lowest hanging fruit.
Again, I never said we should invade Iraq, because other countrys were a threat. I said we should invade Iraq because Iraq was a threat.

I remind you your first post said this:

The argument of, well if we went into Iraq, why didn't we choose North Korea or Iran doesn't make much sense to me. Why didn't we invade these countrys before Afghanistan? They have the potential of making WMDs where Afghanistan was never even in the running. So they could potentially hit us harder than a second hit from Afghanistan.

I had to read it several times. But it does seem to me you are saying:
Iran and NK are more dangerous than Afghanistan. So we should have invaded them before Afghanistan. So it was okay we invaded Iraq.
Am I missing something? This is stupid.
