Irak war a huge mistake?

Question

Why do a lot of people still tink that Irak war was a good idea?
Lets sumarize the facts that makes this war one of the greatest errors in recent history.

- Anti US feeling has risen all around the world
- There is not a close solution for this war (the word quagmire comes to my mind)
- Terrorist in Iraq has risen since the start of the occupation.
- There is not such a think like a gorverment in Iraq the "democratic" goverment that was "elected" only controls a small portion of the country
- The world is not a safer place.

Answer 1

it is worse than a huge mistake. it is a war crime. bush/rove/cheney (the real axis of evil) should be tried as war criminals for their actions in iraq and afghanistan.

Answer 2

Yes, the war in Iraq was a collosial mistake. It increased the number of extremists around the whole region. All those American troops and Iraqis died for a lie. Bush doesn't realize what great sin that is. I will never forget the sad episodes that are seen in Iraq. Its reasonable to blame everything on Bush.

Totally agree.

Answer 5

I argue with the Iraq war out of principle. The principle that we have too many of our own problems; like unsecure borders, to worry about other countries. Especially countries that seem to hate us. I'm tired of my tax dollars going overseas. We need to help America's interests first and foremost.

Answer 6

yes it was, we weren't even attacked by iraq on 9/11,but by osoma and the talliban thats why we invaded afghanistan but all of a sudden we attack iraq because we think they have wmds while north korea was trying to obtain wmds if they didn't already have them.
