Letter to the Oakland Tribune, January 28,
2005
Bush's war
SINCE WE KNOW that Iraq had no WMDs and no connection to al-Qaida, lumping it in with Afghanistan under the headline of "Terror war costs jump $80 billion" (Jan. 25) seems really wrong to me.
I know that the Tribune doesn't have a lot of room when writing headlines, so here's a suggestion: Replace "terror" with "Bush's." It takes up exactly the same amount of space and puts responsibility for this terrible mess squarely where it belongs.
