Regardless of whether is was or not, we did it. And we have an obligation there now. That is what pisses me off the most about people.
If we left Iraq now, the democracy would fail, iran would probably take over iraq, and all the lives we lost were in vain. At least the people are not under a dictator's rule right now. We caused that, and we have an obligation to help maintain that at least for a reasonable time. Actually, forever.
People may think we didnt belong in the war, but that as irrelevant as saying we shouldn't have lynched dustin when he claimed seer. We went to war, we made a change for those people, let's be proud of our soldiers and country instead of criticizing the people who put us there like monday morning quarterbacks. There are no do-overs. We went there, so support your damn country
