and how much safer would Americans (and the world) be if Bush & Cheney would have invested all this wasted war money into protecting the Security and Boarders of the U.S. and investing in high technology to monitor Terrorism World Wide?
Oh...and if you want to argue that the invasion of Iraq was not illegal then read this...
The United Nations charter has a provision which was agreed to by the United States formulated by the United States in fact, after World War II. It says that from now on, no nation can use armed force without the permission of the U.N. Security Council. They can use force in connection with self-defense, but a country can't use force in anticipation of self-defense. Regarding Iraq, the last Security Council resolution essentially said, “Look, send the weapons inspectors out to Iraq, have them come back and tell us what they've found -- then we'll figure it out from there.” The U.S. was impatient, and decided to invade Iraq -- which was all pre-arranged of course. So, the United States went to war, in violation of the charter. Making the war in Iraq an “illegal” war. Whether congress agreed to it or not.
