My 8yo's question tonight. Why did we invade Iraq after the terrorists


Attack and why those terrorist kill themselves just to knock down 2 buildings, which doesn't weaken US at all (he is an extreme practical and utilitarian thinker). I don't have good answers for either question. Best I could come up with was that we thought the terrorists were hiding in Iraq and that people who don't have good lives and feel desperate sometimes do strange things.
