Had the Bush administration said initially, "This is an oppressive government, and by taking out this dictatorship will improve human rights...." or something to do with human rights, I might've said "hm...okay". But by saying he has WMD's, instilling fear into American Ignorants, and putting on hold any change in the government (Note that the republicans took everything in 2002, largely because George Bush went to most states and urged them to vote for the republican).
Think about it; If this was a humanitarian mission, American people wouuldn't have been afraid to sleep at night (some were, trust me); What's better, putting fear into your own citizens, or putting hope? Obviously, if you plan on invading a nation, putting fear into your own citizens is essential. "Fear leads to anger....anger leads to hate....hate leads to suffering" as I believe Master Yoda once said, it is very true!
Fear, that the government put into its people about another nation/person, leads to anger about that nation/person; if given the proper amount of time, hate will surface. Don't you think this is how Arab radicals began hating us? They feared us, and our western ways, that turned to anger, and then turned to hate. Makes sense to me.
