It was a poorly executed and unnecessary war.

War in Iraq Over! Was it worth the Price...the way Bush/Cheney decided to fight it?
I supported invading Iraq. I thought dismantling the whole shebang and staying around Marching Freedom at the point of a gun was a terrible strategy.
What about it -- was the war worth the price?
Judging from right now. No.
5 years down the line, who knows.

No, in the end it has ended up not worth the cost, but managed better it could have been much different. IMO
amazing you can know all that right now...not even the experts, generals in the field, in obama's admin know this...but amazing that you do
Every single person who protested the war could see what was happening. Why didn't the rest of you see what was going on?
At the beginning, when Bush and Cheney were talking about "slam dunk" "WMD's" "secret Iraqi and al Qaeda meetings", I thought Bush was telling the truth.
90% of the troops going to Iraq thought Saddam was connected to 9/11. Are right wingers going to call them "stupid"?
Sarah Palin thought Saddam was behind 9/11 all the way up to the vice presidential debate.
From where did all these people get these ideas?
And the right wing, the stupid fucks they prove themselves to be, put up "miss me yet" bullboards.

Poll Finds Almost 90% of US Troops Think Iraq War is Retaliation for 9/11
zogby.com A LeMoyne College/Zogby International poll shows that high numbers of troops serving in Iraq believe that the war is a response to the now discredited belief that Saddam Hussein was involved in 9/11 or had substantial links to al Qaeda. Submitted May 1, 2007
(...) a foothold in the ME with the intention of stabilization via liberal democracy spread by prosperity for future energy security was a necessary goal.
I'm one of only 3 that said that it was "worth the price". The problem is that the American people never really understood what was at stake, and what is still at stake. They were simply lied to. Not so long ago I would have said it was obviously, not worth it from a standpoint of idealism. But from a standpoint of foreign policy it was a just and necessary action with all the unintended consequences that come with the responsibility of being the only nation that has the means to do what needs to be done, and unfortunately, a foothold in the ME with the intention of stabilization via liberal democracy spread by prosperity for future energy security was a necessary goal.

If this wasn't bad for the American military in Iraq this would be laughable.so you're telling me the insurgents have surrendered? nothing has changed from a month ago....wow
The insurgency is an internal situation. Combat missions are over. The military says so, not me.
We invaded Iraq for reasons that had absolutely nothing to do with the insurgency as the insurgency started a-f-t-e-r we invaded Iraq. As a matter of fact, Bush/Cheney military advisers dropped the ball on nipping the insurgency in it's infancy. The rush to Baghdad took precedence. Much has been written on this. Commanders on the ground in the rear of the push to Baghdad are on record.
note: please learn how to respond coherently in threads? it's annoying dealing with the type who learns nothing yet shouts incessantly.
note: Tony Blair is now on record saying he didn't see the future in the way the Iraq war unfolded. Where were he and W.?

Every time a soldier is killed it must be because we are in a war? Combat operations are officially over. Combat operations.
