"The main reason we went into Iraq, at the time, was we thought he had weapons of mass destruction." - Duhbya

... we went in to draw in the thousands of AQ fighters who ran from Afghanistan....that's what "Bring it ON" was all about

That's bullshit too. In reality, it wasn't a reason for invading, Bush regretted saying it. And he said that after we invaded in response to a growing insurgency that was unexpected after declaring we prevailed in the battle of Iraq while standing under a "mission accomplished" banner.

And bring it on they did. What was supposed to be a six month war at most -- turned into a 9 year war.

YOU f..king traitorous IDIOT!!!
Right... it took longer because we had TRAITORS LIKE YOU here in the USA including the MSM that repeatedly helped encourage the terrorists to kill 100,000s Iraqis and US troops with statements that have BEEN PROVEN by a Harvard study to prolong yes even THWART the liberation efforts!

The Harvard Study asked: THE EMBOLDENMENT EFFECT
"Are insurgents in Iraq emboldened by voices in the news media expressing dissent or calling for troop withdrawals from Iraq?

The resounding answer WAS YES!!! according to Radha Iyengar, a Robert Wood Johnson Scholar in health policy research at Harvard and Jonathan Monten of the Belfer Center at the university's Kennedy School of Government.
Using data on attacks and variation in access to international news across Iraqi provinces, we identify an “emboldenment” effect by comparing the rate of insurgent attacks in areas with higher and lower access to information about U.S news after public statements critical of the war.
In Iraqi provinces that were broadly comparable in social and economic terms, attacks increased between 7 percent and 10 percent following what the researchers call "high-mention weeks," like the two just before the November 2006 election.
And these statements which idiots like YOU most likely agreed with did everything in the world to encourage recruit and reward the terrorists to continue.

Imbecile.... not one of those quotes extended the war. The war took as long as it did because we had an idiot as commander-in-chief who ignored advice and neglected to send in sufficient troops to squash the insurgency which follows Shock and Awe.

"So the Iraq war was, despite all that went wrong, a good thing; the "overwhelming majority" of Iraqis are (and presumably feel) better off because of it"

It's not the role of the US to spend billions in treasure and thousands in lives to make people in foreign countries feel 'better off'.
 
I always suspected they had been sold off by Saddam, so there were no WMD's left on the ground by the time that the US arrived.

There are audio tapes of phone conversations proving that Iraq was loading trucks and moving stuff out just ahead of the U.N. inspector's arrival. The inspections were scheduled in advance, giving the Iraqis ample time to move any evidence before the inspectors showed up. The left either doesn't catch on to stuff like this or they deliberately lie about no weapons ever existing. Hard to find something that the Iraqis don't want found when you give them plenty of warning before you come and look.

Once the left decides on a narrative, no amount of evidence will sway them. They like accusing Bush of things and refuse to acknowledge that Dems in congress were all in on this together and the decisions were based on intel. The left never bashed the people responsible for the intel. They just couldn't stomach seeing Bush do something right and they have always tried to change the facts. They continue to lie and the minions eat it up.

There were a lot of reasons to go after Saddam. He was a threat to many people, including his own. He committed terrible human rights violations, was a terrorist sympathizer and was working on WMDs to use against other countries. No wonder the left feels sorry for him the same way they do the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas and al Qaeda. Any enemy of America is a friend of theirs.

Produce ANY Iraqis that worked on WMD programs. Until you can there can't possibly have been WMD's.

There should be thousands of Iraqi personnel that would have been associated with the WMD's.

Where are they?

Tell me do you have brothers/sisters,uncles,aunts, grandparents etc? I.e. do you have a family?
You tell me if any of these family members had a problem that you could help with would you do so?
The thing you idiots totally forget is that the USA is made up of people that came from other countries. Countries that had relatives that immigrated to the USA.
Starting with the first treaties,agreements that were made to come to the aid of the USA and USA come to the aid of other countries the USA has a
responsibility when these relatives of USA citizens have problems. It is a "family" issue that the USA has become involved around the world.
So when idiots like you forget that almost all of the USA is comprised of people coming from countries that the USA came to the aid I have to remind you..
do you not help family members that have problems...so it is with the USA coming to the aid of countries where are relatives live!
Do you understand? The USA is a neighbor to the world and when our neighbors have problems they will eventually affect us!

10 Years After the Fall of Saddam How Do Iraqis Look Back on the War - The Atlantic
Imbecile.... not one of those quotes extended the war. The war took as long as it did because we had an idiot as commander-in-chief who ignored advice and neglected to send in sufficient troops to squash the insurgency which follows Shock and Awe.
Only a simple minded party hack would post that,The media and our not so honorable Dems most certainly made things worse,more live lost more destruction.One would have to openly lie or have head so far up ons ass to think otherwise.
Plenty of military experts advised for the need of more troops, including Secretary of the Army Shinseki and Gen. Colin Powell.
Below is a link to an objective analysis of the debate as it was being held in 2006.

There WAS enough troops to Liberate Iraq!
The 2003 Mission Accomplished speech gets its name from a banner that read "Mission Accomplished" displayed on the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln during a televised address by United States President George W. Bush on May 1, 2003 and the controversy that followed.

Bush stated at the time that this was the end to major combat operations in Iraq. Bush's assertion—and the sign itself—became controversial after guerrilla warfare in Iraq increased during the Iraqi insurgency. The vast majority of casualties, both military and civilian, occurred after the speech.
He was RIGHT!
The number of troops to Liberate Iraq was enough!
What Bush misjudged was the traitorous statements made by people like the below that according to the Harvard study prolonged the conflict!
Statements like these HELPED the terrorists! Encouraged the Terrorists!


Senator Kerry (D) "American soldiers going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children."

Remember Kerry EARLIER SAID...
"Without a question, we need to disarm Saddam. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an
oppressive regime .... to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction
.... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real ...."Kerry , Jan. 23. 2003

U.S. Rep. John Murtha(D)"Our troops killed innocent civilians in cold blood,”

Durbin (D) "must have been done by Nazis, Soviets"--action of Americans in the treatment of their prisoners.

then Senator Obama said "troops are air-raiding villages and killing civilians,"

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid(D) "The war is lost, the surge is not accomplishing anything "
