No. While we may have had our hearts in the right place but we failed our mission. We took those people out of one bad situation and placed them into another bad situation. Invading a country and killing all of the bad guys is not all we should be doing. We should be teaching the people of this country how to setup a functioning society so that they will one day be able to govern their country on their own. The bad guys are like viruses and will never stop. Soldiers and innocent people will continue to be slaughtered until a new plan is put in motion.

In a sense they should be thankful but in another sense they should be ashamed that they allowed themselves to be controlled like that in the first place. A countries salvation cannot be found with airstrikes and foreign ground troops. They have to get over all their petty tribal and religious differences. They need to start maximizing oil production so they can use that money to build up their countries infrastructure and defense. They do need to be thankful and cooperate with america because if they don't they will be taken over by Iran or Syria.

I read the lies from other posters. Lies like we have destroyed the entire country of Iraq. They, and those like them are the cause of dividing our country.
Iraqi's are thankful. Thankful Uday and his brother wont be dragging women out of their homes in the night to commit "honor killings" by cutting off their heads with knives.
Gratefull that Saddam wont execute an entire soccer team for losing a game.
And the Kurds have some satisfaction that they probably wont be victims of attempted genocide again.
Iraqis are happy to have the freedom to vote for their government.
The Liberals answering this question are no doubt filled with hate, and they spew that hate everyday against their own country on the WWW. They are too blind with selfishness to realize our enemies feed from that hate.
Liberalism left unchecked will be the demise of the United States of America.

Yes, the Iraqi people should be thankful for what America is doing for them, and most of them are. The liberal media is so blinded by their hatred for Bush that they lie about what is happening in Iraq just like Dan Rather lied about Bush prior to the 2004 election. Dan Rather is gone, but the rest of the liberal media has yet to learn that their lies will not work, and in this case, their lies get people killed. But so long as Bush is President, they will blame Bush for every bad thing in the universe and refuse to see the effects of their inflammatory lies.

Thankful for what exactly? The deaths of over 30,000 civilians ever since the war started? The fact that outsiders are controlling their home country as well as their homes? The fact that a major civil war is about to break out over there?

Maybe we should revive Saddam & put him back in power.
We can ask the survivors in a couple years which was better.
Too bad none of your brain cells survived the trip through the birth canal.

Yeah - they should be really thankful that we're responsible for the total destruction of their country and the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people.
With friends like that, who needs enemies?
