How have you won the Iraq war? It's been a disaster for US strategic interests. Did Bush get the 'Declaration of Principles' passed? No. So while you got rid of Saddam, you didn't get the control of oil which was the reason to invade. The contracts have gone to China and Russia. And Iranian influence in Iraq has massively increased. Now the Iraqis are waiting with baited breath to see if the complete withdrawal of US forces will take place. Can't take anything for granted....

Bin Laden - America's best friend

being stationed in regions, where the u.s. isn't welcomed, is an act of war .the attacks on america and its allies were (and are) therefore 'fair' and logical. war is an ethic-free zone and should therefore be prevented by any means. by any side. bush was the leader of 'the' free world, and a war criminal. bin laden a heroic freedom-fighter and an hateful terrorist. get over it!

@Badassbab Al Qaeda existed b4 the Iraq invasion, a point of the invasion was to provoke Al Qaeda to focus on Iraq (the former Caliphate capital city) where they can be killed. Ur making a sweeping generalization by claiming Arabs dont hate Persians. I happen to know they do. Once again I've been there. I've been to Iraq, Kuwait, saudi Arabia, and Bahrain. I at least have spoken to these ppl, where did u make get ur opinion from? Did u make that up? Is that ur rosey view of the world? its wrong

@Badassbab It doesn’t even matter what the UN says, the UN is corrupt and incompetent and I hope that we never have to depend on them for America’s security. UN resolutions from the 91 Gulf war 660, 678 and to later inspections of Iraqi weapons programs 1441 had already authorized the invasion.I’m not saying that the 1991 and 2003 invasions were for the same reason they weren’t But I don’t see ur point why is it bad to topple Saddam?
