David SmithLet's see. America went to war in Afghanistan to fight Al-Queda but then quickly moved to Iraq for no good reason. Al-Queda and the Taliban have become more powerful in Afghanistan the last couple of years and the violence and death there have increased.
America is staying in Iraq while the UN says there needs to be more troops in Afghanistan. No OTHER nations are stepping up to add these troops, so it looks like the United States is going to have to go back with more troops.
In 2005, there was a plan by the US to go into Pakistan and take out some of the high level Al-Queda leaders but the plan was cancelled while the troops were in the air, going to that mission. If it is found that these leaders were invloved in the assassination of Bhutto, which has caused chaos and which leaders from around the world have denounced because of the affect on Democracy in Pakistan, then Bush would be responsible for this because he called took United States tropps out of Afghanistan to go to Iraq and because he cancelled the mission to Pakistan in 2005.
In effect, Bush's actions will, again, have caused MORE terrorism violence and deaths to occur and a decrease in Democracy in the world. It will also mean more US troops will be killed and injured and that more money will have to be spent fighting the terrorists which SHOULD have been taken care of three or four years ago.
