We went to war based on "kind of"?

If you don't care if Iraq and Iran blow each other up then you should also think that we should pull the troops out immediately don't you?

After all, it's a civil war in Iraq now. Pull our troops out from harm's way and let the Iraqi's kill each other and save our troops from any more harm.

Is that what you are saying?

"...Saddam kinda convincingly insinuated to the US they had..." - Is THAT why we went to war, a war that has taken the lives of +37,500 US military and thousands of Iraqi to-date, because someone "kinda convincingly insinuated"? If you read the numerous articles detailing the improbability of SH having anything close to WMD - AND this admin KNOWING IT - you would never make such a statement.
In the event you haven't kept up but genuinely do want to be informed, read Sidney Blumenthal's Sept 06, 2007 article in Salon magazine, (salon.com)...BUSH KNEW SADDAM HAD NO WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION.

Dude, don't you get it?? We "screwed with" our own allies when we allowed the neocon regime to execute their long planned agenda, of "remaking the mideast"?... 6+ years of neoconservatism, and we are universally loathed. Thinking about a third, unprovoked war and occupation of yet another country, and one has to ask, how does neoconservatism differ from nazism?... Seriously, think about it... What does that make us ???
