Little to early to say.

Iraq looks like it's going to end up a stable democracy. Afghanistan's fate is unkown.

Assuming Iraq stays stable for 50 years.

It's worth it internationally. Not for the US since it would of basically been a bunch of money wasted to take over and fix a country that wasn't very thretening at all...

but those people will be much better off.

In the end... the number of people worse off... are very few... and those better off much greater.

Stability in a government miles away is irrelivent when the US had to borrow all that money to pay for the war. How on earth can people critisize Bush and Obama for bailing out the economy when the war just by itself will basically destroy much, if any, of the growth potential in America's future. China wins

 



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
