Afghanistan and Iraq are different deals. We have this really shameful  
history of blowing up a place and creating hell for the citizens, then  
making promises, then reneging on our promises, then sliding on out.  
Shameful. The Iraq War is over. Cheney and Halliburton won.

Afghanistan did not bomb the twin towers. Some people who trained  
there did. They were and remain justifiable targets.
