The Iraq War was a disaster.
It turned Iran into an Iranian satrapy at a great cost in American lives.
Not worth defending it.
I meant Iraq.
The GW Bush Administration relied on “intelligence’ from a low rent lowlife named Achmed Chalabi and his organization which spun a series of lies about WMDs and other “incentives” to drag the US into war. Chalabi was a convicted felon in Jordan, a decent Muslim country, and was suspected of being in cahoots with Iran. Isn’t it interesting that we ended up doing Iran’s dirty work for it, they got rid of an enemy next door, we lost 5000 of our best young men and women, have tens of thousands maimed for life, spent trillions of dollars and we have a first class mess in the Mideast as a result. What else did we get? Obama as president, two left wingers on the Supreme Court, the end of Christianity in Iraq (their eviction follows that of the Iraqi Jewish community by about sixty years) and Jeb Bush still trying to figure out whether the war was a good idea.
