Jibber? It was our country that was attacked. It's our decision how to handle that attack. If Canada doesn't like it, oh well. If the U.N. doesn't like it, oh well. WE were attacked, and we retaliated, rather than just sit back and twiddle our thumbs until the citizenry could be polled for ideas.
That's the thing i was talking about, where someONE is in charge.

No. YOU were not attacked by IRAQ. YOU were attacked by AFGHANISTAN. IRAQ. AFGHANISTAN. IRAQ. AFGHANISTAN. TWO DIFFERENT COUNTRIES.
The rest of the world did not agree because collectively, the majority of the countries in the UN did not think the war just.
