Three years ago tonight, smart bombs rained down on Baghdad. America had gone to war.

Major combat ended within weeks, but the mission was far from accomplished. And the world today is divided on whether it was all worth it.

We believed then strongly that it was.

"Alas, in this Age of Terror, the choice not to fight can be disastrous; 9/11 proved that."

And this has been seen repeatedly through history. You can't appease tyrants, you have to defeat them and their ilk.

With more revelations from the "Iraq Papers" and tapes to come, it appears that bringing Saddam down was not only Worth It, it was:

It Was Essential

When I was young, China was a staunch ally of the Soviet Union and solidly communist.

Then the question of the day was "who lost China"

If we pull out of Iraq and the Middle East, the question of the day could very well be "who lost the middle east".

The consequences of losing China are very apparent today.

The consequences of losing the middle east are not appealing.

I'm surprise no one asks the question of "who lost Iran"
Most of us know, it was Jimmy Carter aided by the French.
