A short-sighted opinion that neglects to point out how the critical investments in Iraq were squandered and abandoned.

Of course they were squandered. The goal, to remove Saddam, and to replace him with something better was always a pipe dream. As for the WMD, which were the original justification for the war and were used to scare the American people into accepting the invasion, they weren’t found. Now whether you believe they were whisked away to some other country doesn’t matter. The objective of finding WMD, if there, was not accomplished.
