Broodbuster,
I don't necessarily agree with your difference between Iraq and Bosnia since there was absolute genocide going on in Bosnia when we invaded. The genocide card was only played in Iraq after every other reason failed, and Iraq's atrocities are almost 20 years old. If it was so damned important, why did we wait so long?

But I whole-heartily agree with your suggestion that Bush should have stood before the American people and done a better job of convincing them why he wanted to invade. And I concur with your belief of protecting our allies when they are invaded.
