What Will Critics Of Iraq Say Now That Reconciliation Is Under Way?

That's easy.

If the American public had been told back in 2002 that the U.S. invasion of Iraq would result -- at a cost of thousands of American lives and hundreds of billions of dollars -- in the establishment of an Iraq in which Islam is enshrined as the official state religion, they would have rightly decided that it wasn't worth it.

"War on Terror," my @ss.

That’s a load of ... If we hadn’t gone into Iraq, there’d have been the start of a regional wae in the Middle East, that would still be in full swing. The Saddam Fedayeen were a *terrorist/guerilla army, and they were bound for Israel...Not to mention all the daily suicide bombings that Saddam was funding and supplying...the aide he was was giving Arafats terror groups,,,Iran & Syria with ther HizbAllah.

Not top mention UBL and all their training camps.

You Dims, You are such meatheaded dunces. For all your stupid lies about how GW Bush is supposedly so “incurious”, you can’r see the forest for the trees. And like the Eloi that you are, you plan to rectify the situation by electing a smooth crooning pied piper, that you don’t know the first thing about how he’d execute the duties of his office.

You Dims are so lazy brained and cowardly dumb, you just can’t wait to back yourselves into a corner, so that you can be stabbed to death on the pointy end of the sticks of history.

Sheesh!

Actually, many at the time estimated that the deaths could exceed 30,000.

What is remarkable about this war is the lack of casualties. We are now at about 7% of the combat deaths of Vietnam. At the current rate of the last six months, it will take another 90 years to reach Vietnam's level.

I do not speak lightly, my son has been to Iraq 4 times.
