With millions having fled Iraq & scores killed/injured,what did the U S set out 2 achieve?I'm utterly clueless

Answer 1

Mayhem

Answer 2

Here's the problem - it makes no sense, you see this, and declare yourself clueless.

Those who came up with this idea, and were responsible for executing it are equally, if not moreso clueless about Iraq, but they either don't know or won't admit it.

You won't get an answer, because there really isn't one. At least, not one that is either justifiable or makes sense.

Answer 3

America is indeed approaching a spiritual death. Our dark cabal of Neocon leaders, several of whom have held positions of great power under Reagan, Bush I, and now Bush II, are perpetuating unrestrained expansion of the American Empire while utilizing Orwellian propaganda to convince its subjects that they are still living in the "land of the free". They have taken advantage of the inculcated apathy and ignorance of many Americans to begin the erosion of civil liberties through the Patriot Act, to increase regressive taxes while decreasing progressive taxes, and to launch an unabashed assault on the UN rather than working to help reform it in a way that would benefit the world, including America. They are bankrupting the federal government to the point that it will no longer be able to "afford" social welfare programs. They have launched the Bush Doctrine in Iraq. Thanks to the Neocons, many Americans are convinced that the Judicial Branch needs to be relegated to the status of "junior partner". Bush's proposed 2006 budget laid out aggressive cuts to social welfare programs and increases in defense spending. The administration steadily chips away at the wall of separation of church and state, which serves to protect both entities from undue influence over one another. Neocon policies are assaulting the rights of workers and consumers to enhance corporate profits. Exploiting the alleged necessity brought on by their "war on terror", this administration conducts many of its activities in secrecy. Under Bush, the environment is under siege. With the Neocons at the helm, those exhibiting xenophobia, hubris, proper support for the "American Way", anti-intellectualism, and over-consumption are considered to be patriots. As a nation, America is quite near spiritual bankruptcy. Like pigs rolling in the mud, the Neocons thrive in an American culture which promotes shallow thinking, immediate gratification, excessive spending based on easily obtained credit, bellicose attitudes, and a shameless narcissism devoid of empathy.
