"What is in question is your theory that people were against the war in Iraq because Saddam was a secular leftist. That's just utter bullshit.

Yes, I was against the war in Iraq because Saddam was a secular leftist. I marched in protests to this end. If the country had been attacked by a secular leftist, I would have more likely been supportive of a war with a secular leftist, and been more opposed to a war with the Taliban. However the country was not attacked by secular leftists, it was attacked by Islamist ultra-conservative religious extremists, who were considered enemies of the secular leftist in question, therefore raising questions about the validity of the connection between 9-11 and Saddam.
