Illegal war of Afghanistan? erm..no.
Back in 2002, when evidence pointed to OBL as the culprit, we demanded him being given over. The government of Afghanistan then said no, we then declared war on Afghanistan as they accepted this. War illegal? not if you win.
And you are really that ignorant ... that you think that's enough?
You think that you have the right, to go out into the world and murder a million and a half, just because somebody blew up a building?
And you THINK it's mr. OBL ... Mr. OBL, from his laptop in a hill in Afghanistan, a nomad country basically without internet ... had his own personal satellite for connectivity, to connect, talk to and organize a mass hijacking of several plances, with personell who learned to fly with Microsoft Flight Simulator ... and used an aeroplanes kerosin to melt steel, and bring down, not just one ... but several buildings down to their own footsteps.
If the people of the US, aren't capable of seeing the holes in the logic above ... then they bloody border on being retarded. And certainly do not qualify as people that should be in the possession of weapons of mass destruction.

Well we may never truly know all the details...because the Taliban didn't publically give him up so he could be tried...instead, it went the war route.
And even if it turned out it wasn't him, OBL was certainly not some innocent little gentle sheep herder innocently carving out a life. the lost from the USS Cole, the first bombing of the trade center, Khobar towers, US embassy in Kenya, etc. (not to mention the hoards of locals he murdered and killed in the name of islam and his movement).
These are things he proudly took claim to.
Taliban decided to shield a monster.
Taliban backed the wrong horse.
Welcome to the real world...it ain't Narnia.
