It doesn't take a genius to come up with this conclusion... some of us, including Yours Truly, figured this out long before the invasion of Iraq in March 2003. Trillions in debt racked up, thousands of deaths, many more thousands of lives torn apart... what did they expect? Oh, yeah, now I remember... candy and flowers and to be greeted as "liberators". It's long past time to get out of Iraq and stop feeding these delusional profiteering parasites. Push for criminal investigations, indictments, and prison sentences for the guilty ones. We owe at least that much to those who have suffered as a result of the actions of the Idiocracy.
