Why are we allowing those that made all the mistakes to continue to make mistakes? If it is worse than it was under Saddam, what evidence do you have that it will get better, especially under the direction of those that created the problem. In project management, you do not continue a project for 5 years and $500,000,000,000 that has returned nothing back except a badly damaged economy, 4000 dead heroes, tens of thousands of causulties, tens of thousands of dead Iraqi civilians, and no oil to boot.
We should have taken the $500,000,000,000 and put it toward research and development of energy sources to replace oil. We are funding those that fight us. That is stupid (or incredibly brilliant strategy from the oil industry, depending on the point of view).
We do not seem to learn from our choices in the past.
