That's not the point: the statement was "First, do no harm."
So the question then was, "Does a surgeon do harm when he cuts you open before replacing your kidney/liver/whatever and saves your life?"
We're not discussing the motivation of the surgeon.

That's pretty funny right there.
About how many cells does a surgeon kill when he cuts you open before replacing your kidney/liver/whatever? About how many cells are killed in your average abortion? Or are you just utterly making stuff up?

What there were some weak indications of cancer among other indications of no cancer, but the doctor eschewed less invasive methods of investigation because he really, really wanted to open the patient up and brand her uterus because he's a big University of Kentucky fan?

But when it comes to cancer, you don't want to mess around. If you have a strong suspicion of it being present and indications show its present, you take it out. If you take it out and you're wrong, the worst that happened is you subjected the patient to an unneeded operation. If you don't take it out and it is cancer, you're dead. What's it going to be?

Of course, for sturgeons, if they say their biopsies showed cancer and it didn't, and the biopsy was just a scare tactic to drum up sturgeon business, well, the local medical board would find things a little fishy and [more, unimaginable dreadful medico-nautical metaphors].

What if, when the surgeon is wrong about the cancer, the worst that happens is a lot of soldiers get killed, maimed and injured?

Except the biopsies are usually done by other people and then interpreted by other people. The surgeon gets called in usually after the biopsy or other data points at cancer that is only curable with resection.

You see that's where things are really fishy. The sturgeons and the biopsy people are all directed by the same pod. And it's definitely not the one true pod. And the patient was busy getting a second opinion and those biopsies all came back negative.
And its not like these sturgeons haven't swum in murky water before. Or since.
Like the time they told the little urchin that they'd cut him to bits if he told the true cost of a little side-sturgeon business.
It turns out that when it comes to the winds of freedom blowing, a lot of Iraqis are wondering why the hell they risked their lives voting 6 weeks ago: 6 weeks and still no sign of a government.
Imagine, someone not being content with symbolic gestures.
Meanwhile, construction proceeds apace on American bases in Iraq. I guess you promote yourself with the empty gestures you have not with the empty gestures you might want to have.

I find the fact that some people are given no pause at all by the way Bush handled the lead-up to Iraq and the fact that other people are utterly unwilling to see anything positive at all in the results of the invasion equally unsettling.

It may well continue to do so, at least until they discover that it's a scam carried out on behalf of a handful of multinational corporations that stand to profit from their "democratic markets."

I don't quite follow. While I don't think Bush was overly concerned with Iraq's WMDs (ergo, why I didn't vote for him), I do think he saw America's national security interests tied in with what he did in Iraq. That doesn't apply to Africa.

He knew a) Iraq wasn't behind 9/11 and b) that there were no WMDs. So, how could there be our security interest in Iraq worth +1500 lives and thousands more casualties? (Not to mention the humongous number of Iraqi lives.)
The punch line "Cheap Oil" is supposed to be a Michael Moore/UNOCAL pre-emptive one to cut off discussion of a perfidious motive behind the invasion. Har har.

I donut get it. I'm interested in what his motive for going into Iraq was if it was in no way national security related. So just tell me already. But if your answer is "cheap oil" then I'm gonna scoff. That's all.

A) He never claimed Iraq was behind 9/11 B) Intelligence data from both the US and other countries said he did.
While any deaths are unfortunate, given the mission and what has been accomplished, thats way below any expectations. And now look at some of the things that are happening around the Middle East. Let's play 'What If' here. What if democracy begins to spread across the Middle East and the War in Iraq was one of the major contributors to that end, would you think that the men who sacrificed their lives would have sacrificed their lives in vain? Having a peaceful and secure Middle East *IS* in our national interests. Holding dictators accountable to the terms of a ceasefire *IS* in our national interests. But you can't seem to see past that you think Bush lied. It's sad in a way.

A) He never claimed Iraq was behind 9/11
He mentioned them in the same sentence often enough, and strung together what I suppose you to believe unrelated claims, in such a way that a large percentage of Americans believe that Iraq had something to do with 9/11. Lies of omission are just as bad as lies of commission...there's no way you can deny that the Iraq War Marketing Effort was directly tied to 9/11. None.

Iraq and 9/11 are related, yes. This does not mean that Iraq was involved in the 9/11 attack. Iraq was involved in terrorism, though, and in the overall view, that does related to the terrorism attacks on 9/11. That is how they are related. Saddam had the strong potential of weapons proliferation and support for various terrorist groups and in fact did give sanctuary to some terrorists both individually and as groups. Couple that with the hostility towards the US and the flaunting of the ceasefire agreement and there was a situation that the status quo wasn't going to handle. Add to that the discovered Oil-for-Food scandal, and it was obvious that sanctions weren't working.

Amen!
I'm frustrated by the dishonest build-up to the war when a good legitimate case could have been made.
I'm frustrated by the poor political planning with our allies before the war.
I'm frustrated by the poor military and political planning for the aftermath of war.
I'm most frustrated that none of the above were made as potentially close judgement calls (although I think the decision whether or not to go to war in Iraq was such a judgement call), but were made each and every time in the face of overwhelming evidence and predictions of experts, and apparently each time for immediate political reasons.
If you want to continue the metaphor here, we went in for elective surgery (against the patient's will), and we're now killing him with opportunistic infections that we failed to prepare for.
There is the POTENTIAL for good, but I haven't seen much evidence that it will be followed through. We've abandoned Afghanistan to continue being a hell-hole, now we're creating a hell-hole out of Iraq. I think the only way you can be truly optimistic about the current situation is to be completely ignorant of the history and current religious and political trends in the region.

Uh-oh. Looks like you've got the Master List of reasons for the invasion of Iraq. My plans here are scuttled.
Your convoluted rationalization of the "connection" between Iraq and 9/11 notwithstanding, the average American who believed there was a connection simply did so because the president all but said so explicitly. It was a lie then, and it's a lie now.

You apparently don't understand the concept of jihad (ad nauseum, ad> infinitum, etc. etc. etc.).
I believe that many Muslims don't understand those concepts, either.

Well, you can read the senate resolution that had over 20 reasons for war.

Its not Bush's fault if people want to believe what they want. Bush did not say that Saddam was involved in the 9/11 attack. Until you can give me a cite that says that he did, you have no support for your position.

I freakin' love chicken. Fried, baked, roasted,
Yum, yum, yum...

barbequed,
Commie^2. You can have chicken WITH barbeque. You can even put barbeque sauce on chicken (yum). But barbeque is PULLED PORK.

Yeah, and it's MUCH better than people (to be polite I'll call them "yankees") who call anything cooked on the grill "barbeque."
