When you think about 9-11 does the name Saddam even pop into your head because it sure doesn't mine, the name that pops into my head is Bin Laden and then the fact he is still free/alive.

And besides anyway the post title is "What Happened to the unity after 9/11" and I gave my opinion, so I'm not going to sidetrack DJD's post arguing with you about Iraq. If you start a Iraq this,that....... post I will be more than happy to share my thoughts.
Well your the one that pointed at Bush as being the problem for the divide so don't be suprised that some people disagree. We will never ever agree on that.
I suppose you think that if we had got Bin Laden and killed him or put him on trial this would all have been over. Sure we would have been happy about it but for how long? Would our worries have been quelled? What were we going to do after that? Were we going to wait for the next attack then go get whomever the next Bin Laden is at that time? Meanwhile the terrorist organization goes on killing innocent americans. 3000 americans for 20 terrorists (19 hijackers and Bin Laden) bet the terrorists would like that. It should be very obvious that there were alot of people in these organizations that wanted to do us harm besides Bin Laden. These organizations are backed by anti-american governments and others who want to harm us but want to avoid reprucussions. And in my opinion they should all pay no matter how long it takes.
