The Iraq War retrospective Thread

[Lissa]

For a subject like this, I'll break my silence.

"Iraq is the goal, although I'm damned if I can figure just why."

Well, the reason you find yourself in so many wars, is that wars are good for your economy. But the most important reason for the invasion in Iraq was Saddam Hussein’s decision to accept the Euro as valid currency to buy oil, on November 6, 2000. See http://www.gasandoil.com/goc/features/fex71374.htm

"So, was the Iraq war worth it?"

Assuming you mean the so-called cost in dollars, yes ofcourse. In fact, you should praise and thank Mr.Bush for saving your precious economy.

Look up "Policy for a New American Century", you'll see it was all telegraphed back in '97 or there abouts.
