Was Iraq A Mistake?

On this tenth anniversary of the beginning of the Iraqi war, many liberals are STILL saying the Iraq war was one of Bush’s biggest mistakes. Today, even some conservatives are ALSO saying Iraq was a mistake. But was it? First of all, it rid the world of a bloody tyrant, who gave Islamic terrorists a “safe harbor” and a source of money in their war against the world. WERE there “weapons of mass destruction” there? Although many different people agreed there were at the time, and WMDs WERE found there later, the same people who AGREED then DISAGREE today. They quibble over the DEFINITION of what HAS been found. They say what we found was NOT “WMDs.” Today, Syria USED chemical weapons on its citizens. WMDs Saddam shipped to that country. They're saying the REBELS did it, but how did the REBELS get hold of them?

They say Afghanistan WAS a “good war” because that war sent the Taliban, a well-known Islamic front, “running for the hills,” from which they STILL snipe at our troops AND Afghani citizens instead of running the country and victimizing Muslims who live there. In Iraq, the biggest question seems to remain: “Were there WMDs in Iraq?” Many liberals still say no. This in spite of the fact that, many years later, we’re STILL finding them there even though Saddam sent most of them out of the country during the time Bush was telling the world he was going to invade Iraq before he finally did, and then toppled Saddam inside of two weeks while Saddam’s “press hack” was telling the world it wasn’t happening, with our tanks rolling by behind him. The fact remains, Iraq was NOT a “mistake,” no matter how many lies liberals tell about it. (Wired)
