Such an attack on a Middle Eastern Muslim-based nation would simply serve to promote anti-US judgements, thus providing a basis for die-hard nationalism on which terrorism is founded.
The government of Iraq, to all of our knowledge has no direct relationship to Bin Laden or Al Qaeda. Such an attack would not only be unsuitable, it would be disgustingly costly.
The actual idea of an invasion of Iraq is completely and utterly absurd. It would not only put our nation's people in great physical and mental risk, but could cause extreme economic problems. The most conservative estimated cost would be $100 billion dollars of taxpayer's money. That is enough money to provide healthcare for every uninsured child in the US for five years. Also, we cannot just invade Iraq and force Hussein to abdicate the throne; we must then proceed to rebuild the nation of Iraq's economy and government. This will therefore not only cost the United States a great amount of money but will also force us to spend more time in Iraq. The nation of America will have to be committed not only economically, but also democratically and diplomatically.
The most important reason why any military intervention would be completely unacceptable is the fragile state of the Iraqi people at present. The last US military intervention during the Gulf War had a catastrophic effect on the Iraqi population that is still felt today. Approximately 100,000 citizens died, and as a result of the 300tonnes of depleted uranium the United States dropped on Iraq, children are dying every day from leukemia and other cancers. Iraq is a country where medical supplies are near impossible to obtain because of trade sanctions. This is the reality of military intervention. The US has not ruled out the use of nuclear arms in this war - a disgustingly hypocritical proposal. War is horrifically ugly, and attacks of this nature would completely destroy the hope and foundation of Iraq.
