If there's one thing 23 million liberated Iraqis agree on it's that they are better off with Saddam gone.

America did the right thing in 91 and America is doing the right thing now (whether you support the war or not) by staying and taking responsibility for Iraq until they can stand on their own.

Okay, we aren't responsible for those decisions but we did atleast a little bit empower him by giving him weapons..

The way you phrased the last sentence makes it seem like Iraq will be fine in a couple of years. We could be there for decades. It also isn't the war itself, its more the fact that WMDs was a complete sack of bullshit fed to us by the government. An evil dictator or not why did they want to invade Iraq REALLY?
