Mike:
Pointless War and Pointless Victory? Rape rooms and multiple rapes being stopped? Torture rooms closed and plastic shredders shredded themselves? Democracy firmly in place rather than a Stalinistic tyranny? 40,000 slaughtered Iraquis a year replaced with a more normal mortality. Iran securely surrounded on three sides. Saddam’s WMD Committee of Scientists with orders to reconstitute their vile programs permanently put out of business, and thousands of square miles of French manufactured weapons dumps blown up and closed down. And Saddam no longer able to bribe Arab boys into blowing themselves up in pointless public suicides like on 9/11 in order to help their hopeless families. And the US Military now regarded as the most invincible force in history. And the Dead of 9/11 well vindicated, if not completely so. And the Food for Oil Corruption Program shut down as well so millions of children freed from Saddam’s prisons can now eat. And the Marsh Arabs and Kurds liberated from a slow genocide. And the Glee of those with Purple Fingers. And you think because this all happened in the Cradle of Civilization it was pointless? The US was far more bankrupt at the end of our Civil War and at the end of WWII but the Slaves were still free and the Death Camps were still closed. If you think this is pointless, then what was the proper response to the World Trade Center being destroyed? Sheesh.
