4,500 U.S. soldiers dead, another 32,000 wounded, nearly two trillion dollar price tag...

Easily the single biggest presidential blunder of my lifetime. Congratulations, George W. Bush!

More Amerian soldiers died and were wounded in the Civil War, and the First and Second World War. Were those wars not worthy of being fought too?

We paid a price. But we may have to deal with Saddam a couple years later. Or take out his successors (Uday and Qusay)

But probably not. We could containe Iraq. They would be more like Syria today (my guess).

Ultimately, Iraq is better off today. But it was not worth the precious American blood we had to bleed over it.
