I'd say the big difference.

Mainly, the US gets attacked, the US invades Afghanistan.

Russia invades Chechnya, Russia deports a bunch of the people which kills about 1/4th of them. Get their independence when the USSR falls. Russia invades them again. Russia gets attacked.

Not that innoncent people deserve to be killed by terrorists but...

I'd hardly say the two comparisons are comprable.

 

US attacked Iraq without reason. There were never weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, and the links between Al Qaeda and Iraqi government were never proven.

US most likely attacked Iraq for the oil.

Considering that Iraq greatly spiked the amount we pay for oil... I doubt that.

Iraq is a WHOLE nother story.  If the majority of people want the US to leave immediatly, they in fact should... and if the majority of people do want the US to leave immediatly and Iraqi terrorists attack us, once again, i'll be pissed but would want the US to pull out.

I think it was just Bush wanting desperatly to put a stable democracy in the middle east in place of dictatorships.  It would stabalize the region somewhat, while also destabilizing the governments nearby.

 

That's and even worse reason! So they attacked just for attacking?! My god.
