re: Was the War in Iraq a "Big Fat Mistake" or Was President Trump Wrong?

The war would be over but traitors in congress and the judiciary have thwarted every effort to bring the conflict to a successful conclusion.

The war in Iraq was a mistake. Iran today is not a mistake. Israel was going to end up Nuking Iran and most likely kicking off WW3 if we did not try and take them out the way we have. In my opinion.
Well reasoned. I believed Rubio who, for the first time on March 2, let us in on the timing of the US attack:
“We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action, we knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces."

Maybe you're right, but can you be specific? What act of the Republican-controlled Congress has impeded the President's actions against Iran?
Similarly, I haven't seen a single judicial case, much less a ruling about Iran. Can you cite something for us?

Thanks. I understand the disconnect now. Do you think we didn't bomb the school in Minab?

In what fairy tale land do you live in where the US wasn't going to war in Afghanistan after 9/11? There was no mistake in going there regardless of how it ended.
exactly. Afghanistan was 100% justified but people tend to lump Iraq and Afghanistan into one war. Now you can argue we stayed in Afghanistan too long and didn’t have a clear exit strategy, but you literally have no choice but to annihilate the perpetrators of 9/11.

Yeah. It’s 100% war
Does anyone think the people that have died consider it anything other than a war?
. Trump relies on people bring ignorant to be effective at suckering them in. Some people also want to be gaslit for whatever reason

Which is what I've been telling you all along.
That's the problem with passing judgement on these actions. There is so much you don't know. Sometimes you never know. Sometimes you find out information that sheds light on it, but it's usually years later.

Deposing Saddam/ Baath party/ et al was not a mistake.
Occupying the country for the better part of a decade was, particularly under the prescribed rules of engagement.
USMC OIF x 2.

What good did toppling down Saddam Husseins statue do?
No WMDs. Iran was working on the mother of all weapons. This process was said to move to Syria in secret as Obama loaded Iran with plane fulls of cash and gold.
Our USN Sailors were captured and held at gunpoint on international news. The Afghanistan withdrawal and Obama, Bidens, the Bush's, Carters, geopolitics were indeed big fat mistakes.
I know you aimed this thread as a Trump gotcha, but let's wait and see about Iran. It took years for the faulty Iraq WMDs to come out. Then we have SA and 911 with Brennan judgements.
Was GWB aware of the faulty WMD intel?
The political climate wants to make Israel a sole boogeyman ;and have Carlson proclaim sharia law is law and order. So let's hold off on Iran judgement ATM.

We bombed something important that was hidden by a school, perhaps.

No. Taking down saddam was the right move but we fricked the war up with De-Baathification. Going to war with Iran was also the right move but once again we’re fricking it up.
Posted on 8/28/26 at 9:58 am to IvoryBillMatt
Iran was the Elephant in the room back then too. We obviously did not plan for their insurgency campaign.

I guess in the same way Vietnam wasn't a war, sure.
