But hey, I guess 4000 American lives and countless non-combatant Iraqi lives were well worth it so W could thump his chest and say he kicked someone's arse.
War is never worth it, unless you win.

There was no justification whatsoever to invade.
We just disagree. Any outlaw in charge of an agressive, large military force is subject to removal at international discretion.

Further, it took us off mission to deal with those people who actually had a hand in 9/11 and likely delayed us catching and kill OBL for years.
Again, I agree with the way we prosecuted both wars - I'm not defending the generals and the "nation building" that somehow crept into our mission package during the 1990s and eventually replace warfighting as our primary function. I bitched about then (nobody listens to lieutenants/captains), during the Balkans and I continued to bitch about it until the present (nobody listens to majors/lieutenant colonels).

So when do we go into North Korea? Several African nations have outlaws running them.
You of course understand this never ends.
