When polled, an astounding number of Americans thought that the United States went to war with Iraq because of links to 9/11. However, no such links between this Middle Eastern Country and September 11th existed (and still do not exist). Hence I find it increasingly funny and at the same time downright terrifying that people continue to believe in this fashion.
This is an oil war, not a humanitarian war. Keeping America scared, as with the McCarthy and his communism red scare, has been the current administration's key in justifying this war in the Middle East. This, of course, is what lead to this "Iraqnophobia" political design.
Those who get it on a cynical and witty level understand what I mean by all of the above, and those who are the scared will take it for it's literal meaning.
