Right about what?
He pushed for it when the Democrats supported it and now says “oops”, continuing to toe the Democrat line when things got tough and it was costing everybody political power.
Either the asshole was right when he condemned the Iraqis to death along with our soldiers or he wasnt.
Saying now that “it was a mistake” is a firing offense. It was a bad call Ripley.
I believe myself today in hindsight that it was a mistake to invade Iraq the second time....no question in my mind
The bitter fruits of that are bountiful
We all got caught up in it......it was a strategic message to any nation thinking of hosting large scale jihad targeted at us
We will come for you and regime change

My view
Saddam ...monster he was ...was a fundie slayer of the first order and balanced Iran
Plus it’s the ultimate hubris to think primitive superstitious peoples of varied ethnicities who hate each other can be forced to live together especially under the Pollyanna notion of democracy or if they even want it
Maybe they actually refer warlord tribalism or supreme ruler over our so called freedom
