Would you like to know why the Bush administration was filled with so much controversy? Although George Bush attended an Ivy League school like many other presidents he was not much of a critical thinker, nor was he good at reasoning. What did enhanced interrogation techniques really mean? It gave U.S. officers the right to legally torture detainees who may or may not have known about terrorist actitivites. Bush may have been president at the time, but why did he think he alone had the power to defy the Geneva Conventions? The Geneva Convention laws had been in effect for almost 140 years and were abided by many countries. He used his position of power to put America into a war with no clear purpose and he is somewhat responsible for the 9/11 attacks. It is public record that the Bush family has ties to the bin Laden family and that they have interest in the middle east to protect. This is one of the main reasons HE went to war. Bush and vice president Dick Cheney had secured a pipeline to be build that would draw natural gas from different regions in the middle east and they wanted to protect these assets. After the longest war in U.S. history we have not found any weapons of mass destruction which was our original intent. So you have to ask yourself, if pipelines have been in the middle east years before George Bush and there are no weapons of mass destruction why are we still in the middle east after ten years?
