Why would Gore have invaded Afghanistan?
He would not have wanted to run a pipeline across it.
No one is ever going to win in Afghanistan.

And globalisation's not to blame for the rise of the neocons.*
I think you have back to front.... the Neocons were responsible for globalisation.

Robert,

If my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle.

The pinnacle of corruption in America is the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court stopped the vote count in the key state of Florida where George W Bush's vote was floundering. This led to a Bush-Cheney administration and in turn to the lie campaign that accompanied the war criminals Howard, Bush and Blair in their aggression against the sovereign state of Iraq.

Al Gore might well have invaded Afghanistan which was harbouring those believed to be behind the destruction the World Trade Centre on September 11 2001 but the invasion of Iraq was Dick Chaney's project with the idiot Bush in tow.
