ok.. it also cant be bush or rumsfeld cuz they are responsible for other things as well.. using them as a symbol for the iraq conflict/war wouldnt be very understandable unless you are doing something for what bush could be remembered most for which would be an entirely different question

How bout a bleeding heart. to reperesent all the ****** politicians who turned on the military. we were sent to fight a war not serve punch and pie. why do you think its such a **** hole over there. while we were percieved as strong there was order and peace. then it became a police action. once it was learned that we would not indescimatley butcher villages or randomly kill people just because , they were no longer afraid. It says alot about us when the iraqi's fear the terrorist more than us.The only thing those folks understand is brute force. kindness = weakness.. been there done that got the scars.

though a sickening artificial media event ,
I would say the toppling of the Saddam statue in Bagdad is the most iconic symbol
