The war was a tremendous victory. A complicated rebuilding is still on going but is no failure by any means.
Of course, the weiniefied American people believe ANY casualities means we have lost even when those casualties are not even half those incurred taking small islands in WWII.
Treason Media lack of perspective and distortions have demoralized the American people.

The invasion and overthrow was brilliantly done in spite of the Turks unwillingness to allow our heavy armor to come rolling down from the north. It's the aftermath that simply hasn't worked out. The US allowed an insurgency to take hold that gave room for a guy like Sadr to enjoy a level of influence that he never should have been able to achieve. They have allowed Syria and Iran to embed their agents in the country and raise hell without any retribution. They decided to rebuild a country with our tax dollars looking to win hearts and minds when too many of the population are mindless savages who are looking to settle scores instead of build their country. The invasion was long overdue but the post invasion plans have been rather ineffective. I measure that by the blood of our soldiers.
