The fact that we now have two allies in the Middle East instead of two sworn enemies is of great strategic importance to the US. The fact that the Taliban and Saddam are gone is unquestionably beneficial to us. The fact that in the process we liberated 50 million people is also to our ultimate benefit. We are in the process of helping to democratize a very volatile region--which in the end will pay enormous peace dividends. You need to have a broader view than that put out by the NYTimes and the Democratic Party.
I don't read the NYTimes and I don't pay any attention to the Democrats. I don't drink the KoolAid of the 'neocons,' nor of the BushBots.
BTW, Bill Rusher's column in today's WND approximates my point of view on the matter.
Please take your superiority complex elsewhere.
