Yeah fair point. I think much of America felt they had an obligation to respond directly to those directly involved with 9/11 (and yet, we never touched Saudi Arabia), so I can understand a limited operation to find OBL.
… Yet literally within 6 months of 9/11, George W Bush famously said, “I don’t know where he is, nor do I spend much time on it to be honest with ya[…] I truly am not that concerned about him.” Source
It took Obama to clean that up with precision, which is how it always should’ve been.
That being said I should note that Iraq had fundamentally nothing to do with 9/11 in any way. There were many lies spread by right-wing media and the Bush Administration trying to tie Iraq and Saddam to Al Qaeda and Bin Laden, but none of those bore any truth.
