It is my opinion that our military has done a fantastic job and that they are a bunch of patriotic heroes...who are being killed for no VALID reason.
It is my opinion that the American people were lied to about why we were invading Iraq. Saddam, while a crazy man, was no threat to the US or our allies. The sanctions had worked. As has been proven, he did not have WMDs or the ability to effectively make war on anyone outside his own country. He was not, "in bed" or in cahoots with the fundamental Islamic terrorists who took over the planes on 9/11. We really had no business going to Iraq.
It is my opinion that the current administration has zero idea of how to end the Iraq War. Don't get me wrong, I doubt anyone on the Democrat side of the isle has any idea how to get us out of there either.
It is my opinion that the Iraq war has turned a larger percentage of the world against the US than it has ever faced before.
It is my opinion that the Iraq war has made it much less safe for me as an American citizen here at home and that it has made it incredibly unsafe for me to travel overseas.
It is my opinion that our military will be in Iraq for another 10 years at least.
It is my opinion that the Iraq war has given fundamental Islamic terrorists from all over the globe a place to go to kill Americans.
It is also my opinion that just like the British found out, here in America, in the late 1770s, and we found out in Vietnam in the late 1960s, and the Soviet Union found out in Afghanistan in the late 1980s, it is next to impossible to win a fight against a foe who you can't see, or who you can't tell apart from the non-fighting civilians they are surrounded and supported by.
That is my opinion on the Iraq War.

I think that Team America Wold Police is doing a SPLENDID job in Iraq... I mean... how can you argue with Bush? "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!!" he said it already! so wait? why are we still there? why is the world hating us MORE and MORE each day? I don't get it? But I thought we had every right to go into Iraq... I mean... Look at all the WMD's... they were EVERYWHERE! and obviously they were the terrorist nation before we got there.... not like Afghanistan or Syria or Iran... or wait? did they all just migrate there after we went in and bonched the first attacks? MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BABY! Hell yes!
Look at the things we accomplished. Since the first attack where we took out strategic targets like schools, and mosks, and hospitals, Halloburton gets to rebuild it and make BILLIONS! VICTORY!!!! and all the lucrative oil contracts that we "aren't " getting? MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!!!
what a joke.

War sucks. The Iraqis have to get their act together and police themselves. We got them out from a cruel genocidal dictator. Now they have to pick up the ball. Our troops have done a fantastic job even though they have been micro managed by idiot politicians. God bless the troops. Unfortunately people get lazy and stupid in this society of inst-grad give me Twinkies and MTV. The sanctions worked for the UN Oil for Food program to put $ in Kofi's kid's pocket. How about ANOTHER UN resolution...

Despite whether or not you agree with it I think most can agree, we all hope its over as soon as possible. Iraq needs progress and it needs to get overwith soon. But I do think anyone who wants to cut and run should explain what they think the consequenses will be if we do. I hear lots of cut and run prematurely, but they never want to give thier opinion on what may happen if we do.

War should be a last resort. It was good at the beginning but even I'm getting bored of it. It should've ended a year or so ago.
