The irony being that some Iraquis wanted the USA to topple Saddam and then engage in nation building as a means of transferring our wealth into their back pocket... and we obliged.Ayup... justified in this case is a very subjective term. Authoritarians... yeah they always feel they are justified, it comes from seeing yourself as supreme over everyone else.What I think is very hypocritical is many of those who say the US was justified in going to war because Saddam used chemical weapons. Saddam used many of these chemical weapons when the US under Reagan supported him. These same people think Reagan is the best President ever.
we cannot police the entire world, but the terrorists and dictators should know that they will be destroyed if they every try to harm the USA or its citizens-------------that fear is what is missing under obozo and his cast of clowns.
Yes, corruption is always present. We learned nothing from the 58,000 americans who died in viet nam for nothing. its quite pathetic really.
