Lets see now, a senseless war built on lies causing as many deaths as Sadam caused, never mind the suffering involved, with the sole purpose of feeding the egos of some chicken hawks . Can you tell me one thing that the US has gained from this nonsense, except more hatred around the world and a place for terrorists to practise their trade?

Yeah, Saddam was a tin pot dictator who preyed on his own people, kind of like maybe 50 others around the world who for whatever reason the West ignores.

The US has lost billions of dollars at a time they are going bankrupt and have taken their eye off the real threat in Afghanistan and Pakistan. How anybody can call this not a failure, I don't know.

Having said this I wish the Iraqi's great success and peace, they deserve it.
