Righto. And unnecessary wars are not conservative either. Afghan was necessary. Iraq was a basketcase and no immediate or urgent threat to us. After the beating Iraq took in the Gulf War plus some dozen years of bombing, no-fly zoning, blockading, and inspecting, they were a proven cakewalk. If Iraq was the stated imminent threat to the USA, the alert flag would now have disappeared.
Iraq was completely contained in Iraq. Now so are we, with casualties and cost to boot and the Israel-Palestine situation worse rather than the promised better.
