By defeating the evil Iraqi regime and getting control of Iraq's oil supplies. USA is clearly winning the war on terrorism. Just a few more years and the war on terrorism will be all but won.

And having 100000s of innocent Iraqi citizens killed in the process is just collateral damage? Besides, there were no terrorists in Iraq before the invasion.


 100,000 innocent Iraqi citizens, where do you hear this crap.  What about the thousands that Sadam had murdered on a regular basis.  I guess you did not care about them.  There were no terrorists there?  You must live in a dream world.  There is proof that there were terrorist training camps in northern Iraq, and Sadam regularly gave money to support terrorist groups.


Please don't tell me you still believe Al Qaeda was present in Iraq when Saddam was still there. And I never said there weren't horrible crimes against the Iraqi people when Saddam was still in charge. I'm saying that the US wasn't prepared to lead Iraq after conquering it and made some terrible decisions which laid a foundation for the massive violence erupting afterwards, while this possibly could have been prevented by making the right decisions. After conquering the country the US became responsible for the safety of the people in Iraq and they failed miserably in providing it. You shouldn't compare the situation of Iraq under Saddam and Iraq under the US, you should really compare Iraq in its current condition with how Iraq should have been if the US government took their responsibilities correctly.
