I've been talking with my friends and they said Iraq wanted war with the USA and that Saddam got Osama to do the attack on 9-11, and so that's why we atacked five years ago, even tho we still haven't gotten Osama.

No, and nor was it "imminently" ever going to attack or pose a danger to the U.S.
This being the reality, the invasion of Iraq was an unprovoked war of aggression, which is the capital of war crimes.

George W. Bush, as commander-in-chief, is ultimately responsible (the buck's gotta stop somewhere), though his advisors and VP (part of the PNAC which dreamt this whole thing up, and who has profited to the tune of billions thanks to his Haliburton shares increasing 3000 percent) should also be held accountable
Rhapsody, you should be ashamed of yourself for claiming Iraq had anything to do with 911, but then again, Bush and Cheney tried to make the connection many times while they were beating the war drums. Of course the alleged hijackers, like Bin Laden, and his family (partners of George Bush the father in Carlyle Group war profiteering corp.) were Saudi Arabian, not Iraqi, and Saddam's government was secular, i.e. non religious, and disapproved of extremist Muslim groups, and kept them out.
Troops were also brainwashed by the military into believing the idiocy that Saddam had something to do with 911:
"...One surprising finding in the poll is that 85 percent of those surveyed believe that the US's main mission in Iraq is to retaliate against Saddam Hussein for his role in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. Numerous commissions and studies have been unable to find that Iraq played any role in the 9/11 bombings. Meanwhile, 93 percent said that they did not think that removing weapons of mass destruction was the reason they were in Iraq. ..."

(note: even though 85% of troops polled falsely believed they were "retaliating for Saddam's role in 911", THEY STILL THINK THEY SHOULD PULL OUT OF IRAQ NOW!)

Iraq is at the center of the war against terror, its in the MIDDLE of the area which the enemy come from, we choose to take the FIGHT to the enemy, its logic to take the fight to them instead of letting them choose, which would be on US Soil and it would be thousands of more civilians killed like on 9/11. By being in Iraq you creat a front AWAY from home and the enemy go to it. If we had not gone into Iraq, we would without a doubt had more attacks on US soil. So far NONE.

The 13 British colonies declared independence as u . s . a . 4 July 1776,and as struggling with persisted till 1781 this counts as warfare on US soil. warfare of 1812. American Civil warfare. distinctive wars against interior of sight human beings residing in the u . s . a . and its territories. because of the fact the Mexican-American and Spanish American wars have been fought on territory not then area of the u . s . a .,yet later annexed,those do not count selection as wars fought on US territory.

No. Iraq did not declare war on the US. Bin Laden and Hussein did not agree with one another to work together. It's speculated they hated each other.

No, They have never officially declared war on the USA. During the Persian Gulf they were in violation of many UN sanctions by occupying Kuwait, and they knew they would be fighting, but they have never officially declared war

You have got to me kidding me. I don't even have to ask you if they had any evidence, because this conspiracy stuff has been debunked so many times in the past 5 years that I already know there isn't any. Maybe your friends need to stop smoking pot and get jobs so they can do something useful with their time.

president bush is more worried about the oil in Iraq so he could have more power because if Iraq had the most oil it would have great deal over the rest or the world

By harboring terrorists and supporting terrorist organizations, they aided in the plot on 9-11.
