Oh, don't get me wrong, I don't think Michael Moore is 100% correct, but he's not 100% incorrect either.

For example, the movie consistantly implies there is a connection between the Bin Laden family and the Bushes, however, if there was a 'credible' collaboration, why did 9/11 happen? That wasn't addressed. Nor do I agree with his saterizing of the 7 minutes Bush was sitting in the school. If he was alerted of an attack on American soil, would it really be that bright of an idea to jump up and say "OMG WAR TIEM BY" in front a bunch of kindergarteners? Probably not. I'd also like to know where he got the statistic saying (roughly) 11000 troops were in Afghanistan by November, because I can't seem to find anything short of 30000.

But those things aside (there are more, but I haven't mentioned them), he's certainly right about some vital things. The biggest one is Iraq's association with terrorists. Hell, he's got speechs of those big high-ups saying that Iraq was secure (prior to March 2003). On top of that, to date, there is no proof of Iraqi involvement with terrorist factions (ie Al Qaeda), and FOXnews agrees!

Quote:

Bush, however, insisted Thursday that Saddam had "numerous contacts" with Al Qaeda and said Iraqi agents had met with the terror network's leader, Usama bin Laden, in Sudan.

Saddam "was a threat because he had terrorist connections — not only Al Qaeda connections, but other connections to terrorist organizations," Bush said.



Now remember, insisting something doesn't make it true. If the President could show some evidence, then his plea is justified. Otherwise, it's only an assumption. They're no WMDs either. It questions the motives for the war when there is no ground for going to it.

Another thing that should be considered is the treatment of the ethnicities in regards to the election in 2000. I'm too tired to look up the facts on it now, but I'd bet the videos of the ethnics being scorned is awfully real.
