Iraq wasn't responsible for 9-11, and that whole war was a fiasco that dragged on way too long.
You are right but there were still good reasons to push in Saddam's shit. If you follow JockoPodcast he has one that is called "The Unraveling". One of the first ones goes into the reasons for the Iraq war which convinced me.
Basically Saddam was a gigantic asshole with an international influence and leaving him there after gulf war 1 fundamentally weakened the US. The timing was an expenditure of political goodwill that was banked by 9/11 but if it didn't happen then then it would probably never happen.
It was the mistakes made after the invasion rolled over the regime that really fucked the dog.
