President Bush - State of the union January 29, 2002
So based on that we invade Iraq, ousted Hussien and "liberated" the Iraqi people. At the same time we ensured our own safety by taking out whatever "WMD" Hussien had control of. But using that same logic Mr. Bush used back in 2002, why not attack Iran or N. Korea now? N. Korea has said that they have nuclear weapons. Iran has the capability to make nuclear weapons. Instead, Mr. Bush now wants to negotiate a deal with them.
I leave you with this quote from Mr. Bush
Iraq continues to flaunt its hostility toward America and to support terror. The Iraqi regime has plotted to develop anthrax and nerve gas and nuclear weapons for over a decade. This is a regime that has already used poison gas to murder thousands of its own citizens, leaving the bodies of mothers huddled over their dead children. This is a regime that agreed to international inspections then kicked out the inspectors. This is a regime that has something to hide from the civilized world.
States like these, and their terrorist allies, constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world. By seeking weapons of mass destruction, these regimes pose a grave and growing danger. They could provide these arms to terrorists, giving them the means to match their hatred. They could attack our allies or attempt to blackmail the United States. In any of these cases, the price of indifference would be catastrophic.
We will work closely with our coalition to deny terrorists and their state sponsors the materials, technology and expertise to make and deliver weapons of mass destruction.
We will develop and deploy effective missile defenses to protect America and our allies from sudden attack.
And all nations should know: America will do what is necessary to ensure our nation's security.

How was invading Iraq considered "what is necessary to ensure our nation's security", yet now (that it is a different country) negotiating is what is necessary?And all nations should know: America will do what is necessary to ensure our nation's security.
