"Problem is - Iraq was not where the terrorists were. "

Again...you are dead wrong. Post 9-11, there were various nations and national leaders aiding terrorists. All denied doing so except for one leader, and that leader OPENLY BOASTED that he was rewarding the families of suicide bombers. His name was Saddam Hussein.

Iraq was not where the terroists were and everybody knew it. Going in, there was no pretense about going after terroists in Iraq. We knew they were in Afganistan along with their buddy Osama bin Laden. Why didn't we go in there full force and get him and push the Taliban out of existence instead of dissipating into this stupid Iraq thing?

The Iraq thing was so convoluted and then turned into some kind of "Bush doctrine" about turning countries into democratic countries. Reagan had it right - we don't go invading countries to try to make them democratic. But we do try to support freedom fighters within their own country and use intelligence wisely to help them win.

Saddam's defense team still angry he is dead.

Now he can't send/pay his terrorist goons to target Israeli children anymore.

But they still have Iran.
