Agreed, we went after the guy responsible for 9/11 and the state that was harboring him.

My only ***** is that I don't think we were decisive enough in Afghanistan. I kept waiting for the Sunday punch - 82nd Airborne to seal off the border with Pakistan, Marines to seal off Tora Bora, even a tactical nuke on top of the SOB, ANYTHING to finish the job. But it seemed we kept holding back, more concerned with the buildup for Iraq, and let bin Laden and his cronies escape to fight another day.
