As a general question, however, it is relevant and I'll ask it again.  What
were his intentions in invading Iraq?

I think ultimately the terrorists are killing civilians for their purposes,
and Bush is killing soldiers for his.  Underneath that uniform there's a
human that Bush is sending out to have blown up.  He never gave it a second
thought when he went willy nilly into war.  The real difference between the
two is that we know the intentions of the insurgency, but not the
intentions of Bush.
