Rocket Jock,

IMHO, I think it's pretty well established that the plan for the invasion of Afghanistan was delivered to the president's desk on september 10th 2001. I don't credit Michael Moore with very much because I basically think he's a melodramatic partisan hack trying to pass himself off as an objective documentarian, but he is right about something: The conflict in aghanistan was fallout from the failed negotiations with the taliban, and had zippo to do with 9-11. Blaming Bin Laden for the sept. 11th attacks became a convenient way to draw america into that conflict, and it later became a thorn in Bush's side for the Iraq war. I suspect he wishes now that he had pinned the WTC attacks on someone with closer ties to Saddam.
