Dick Cheney Admits In 1994 That Iraq Invasion Would Be A Quagmire

The video is a huge ball buster for the people who supported the invasion of Iraq in 2003.

The video's music was so annoying though. All the singing was just as loud as cheney's talking, it's like trying to listen to two people talk at once. I didn't get all of it because of such, but the gist was there. Good stuff:thumbsup:

Why the hell was the music there? Who is stupid enough to put music in their video which totally goes over what is being said? What a stupid video maker.

Its a quagmire! right from the dirty dicks mouth...heres a better one without music//////
Cheney's Office Attempts To Memory-Hole Embarrassing Video

Q: Do you think the U.S., or U.N. forces, should have moved into Baghdad?

A: No.

Q: Why not?

A: Because if we'd gone to Baghdad we would have been all alone. There wouldn't have been anybody else with us. There would have been a U.S. occupation of Iraq. None of the Arab forces that were willing to fight with us in Kuwait were willing to invade Iraq.

Once you got to Iraq and took it over, took down Saddam Hussein's government, then what are you going to put in its place? That's a very volatile part of the world, and if you take down the central government of Iraq, you could very easily end up seeing pieces of Iraq fly off: part of it, the Syrians would like to have to the west, part of it -- eastern Iraq -- the Iranians would like to claim, they fought over it for eight years. In the north you've got the Kurds, and if the Kurds spin loose and join with the Kurds in Turkey, then you threaten the territorial integrity of Turkey.

It's a quagmire if you go that far and try to take over Iraq.

The other thing was casualties. Everyone was impressed with the fact we were able to do our job with as few casualties as we had. But for the 146 Americans killed in action, and for their families -- it wasn't a cheap war. And the question for the president, in terms of whether or not we went on to Baghdad, took additional casualties in an effort to get Saddam Hussein, was how many additional dead Americans is Saddam worth?

Our judgment was, not very many, and I think we got it right

just one more thing "how many additional dead Americans is Saddam worth?":S4::chainsaw::toilet_claw:

Yeah but it was a money making quagmire for him and his buddies at Halliburton.

Talk about a Flip-Flopper. He may not come out and say it, but action talks louder than words.
