[QUOTE="Stoned, post: 2921347, member: 100751"] And just because you 'have no damn clue' which actually reflects the position of many objectors to the Iraq-Attack, it does not mean that it was not the right thing to do. The world did not have a clue about Hitler and his Germany at the time, and look where that turning a blind eye almost took the world. I notice you used the words 'at this very moment'. And that is the problem...everyone is so shortsighted, they cannot see the forrest through the trees. Maybe the intelligence was flawed about Iraq. Maybe the immediate threat to the world was not as great as was suggested. But the instability in the entire region was real. The killing of hundreds of thousands within Iraq was real. The need for a democracy in that region to start turning the tide and stabalizing the entire region and thus the entire globe was and is very real. Those countries who wished to adopt a democracy but did not for fear of reprisal from unstable leaders are more likely to begin that movement. Those who will see the success of democracy in Iraq will be able now to start thinking differently and see that it is possible. The attacks on US soldiers has dropped substantially. The voters turned out in droves, even over the incredible fear they had in order for their voices to be heard...in order to be free. And still the objectors keep coming out to brag about how opposed they were/are to the whole thing. I keep seeing comments regarding how the US should now pull out of Iraq. This is the dumbest, most ininformed, unintelligent, short sighted thing I have ever witnessed. At this point, objectors are obviously just stubborn and do not want to admit that they can see the amazing progress that has been made...even if the whole world can see it. For those of you that think that if you just leave things alone then they will go away and everything will improve itself and be peaceful...wake up! Would you leave a festering wound in hopes that it will heal itself? If you would leave it to itself then you deserve the gangrenous infection that would follow. I can only hope that the US, and even moreso other nations, start doing their part and go into other highly unstable regions like the Sudan and others to try to bring some semblance of peace and freedom.
