"War with Iraq?"
Really? You mean like in 1953 when the US overthrew prime minister Mossadeq of Iran? And then we put Shah in power. Or in 1954 we overthrew democratically elected President Arbenz of Guatemala (in which 200,000 civilians were killed) . Or how about 1963 when the US backed the assassination of South Vietnamese President Diem? Btw... did you know that in the 1980's that the US trained Osama and fellow terrorists to kill the Soviets? And we gave them 3 billion dollars. in 1982 the US gave billions in aid for weapons to none other the Saddam Hussein to kill Iranians. In 1983 the US secretly gave weapons to the Iranians to kill the Iraqis. (I guess we wanted them to kill each other?) In 2000-01 the US gave the Taliban ruled Afghanistan $245 million in "aid".
Do you think the US should seriously continue trying to run other countries? I am not against the war, just think what your saying is a bit silly.
