Iraq is pretty much what it was before W invaded it. Back then they were killing each other based on tribal divisions...it had a leader that didn't like us who we thought was going to nuke somebody someday.... and today they are killing each other based on tribal differences.... it has a lederSHIP that doesn't like us, that we don't like, that we think is gonna nuke somebody someday. The only thing that has changed is we got a lot of our men and women injured and killed during the time.

Shiite? Suni? Kurd? Does anyone really believe that any of these would be true allies with us in the long run?

Honestly, I don't care what those people do to each other. When we get ready to bomb the entire region back to the stone age... that's when we'll be making the right decision.
