We should have at least taken their oil while we had the chance. What did we get out of Iraq?


Iran go to war with Iraq? 

Nah.  Iran & Iraq's relationship has never been better.

The end result of the Iraqi war was.... as far as I can tell.

Democracy in Iraq

More Oil and Natural Resources for China and India

Less Oil to Europe due to the corrupt "Oil for Food" program.  (Hence why most of europe was so against the Iraq invasion.  I mean, it should of been against it, but if it wasn't for Oil for food you can bet more western euroepon govs would of lined up behind the US.)

Iraq getting closer diplomacy wise with Iran and China.  (Iran sheltered a lot of political allies of the current government,  the dominant religion in Iraq and Iran is the same, Iran has played a big part in providing exports to rebuild Iran and open tourism has allowed Iraq's and Iranians to meet and share ideas.)

Iraqi Citizens disliking Americans even more.  For first, abandoning Iraq during the first gulf war, then going in again later and fucking everything up.

Trillions? added to the deficit.

Many more homless and disabled people to have to worry about as PTSD will show up and cripple thousands of soldiers causing a net drain on the economy.

Hurt relations with Turkey.

 

So really we got nothing.
