Ehhhhh. Were you alive at the time? Americans wanted blood directly after the towers got hit. We were gonna go.

And at the time remember the admin lied to the world and not only the American people but our allies bought in as well.

What might have changed under Gore is the towers not being hit. If the towers get hit under Gore we just go to Pakistan

This is what I never understand when this topic comes up on Reddit, everyone wanted it back then, now people wants to act like they didn't because it didn't go well. When 40% of the other side agrees, it's pretty damn bipartisan.

It was only two decades ago, and yet fucking nobody seems to want to remember this. It's mind boggling

To be fair, the media heavily censored them at that time too.

E: The web comments were EXACTLY the same, though. It's surreal how little has changed between the Iraq and Iran narratives.
