Afghanistan was always a pretence for the invasion of Iraq. There never was any real plan for Afghanistan. And the only plan for Iraq was to decapitate and destroy the ruling regime, and loot certain records. Oh, and it cost a lot more in lives and money.

The question is why so fixated on Iraq in the first place? I think the answer is simply that Israel wanted it done. USA always seems to be wagged on that one.
