Sounds to me like the Virginia shootings were an act of a very mentally ill and unstable person. I suppose people will be analyzing this for some time. The gun laws here are very ridiculous. The "Right To Bear Arms" in our constitution has made it difficult for gun opponents to battle the pro gun wackos. Time to make some modifications if you ask me.
It is true that the Weapons of Mass Destruction accusation proved to be false. However not only was Saddam guilty of attempted genocide against the Kurds and mass murder against many Shiites, lets not forget that there were Al Qaida training camps operating in Iraq with impunity. The same Al Qaida that is responsible for attacking the US and killing over 3,500 of our innocent citizens in one dreadful morning.
All that said, this war is no longer about the US vs Al Qaida or Saddam. It is now an effort to establish a new government in Iraq without having the Iraqis exterminate themselves. It has become quite a mess.
