Let's ask Kuwait about whether it was noble to have invaded Iraq. Let's ask the Kurdish people, or anyone not in his Baath party. If the motivation was oil, why aren't we swimming in it now?
If we really, really didn't care about how many Iraqis we killed, believe me, we could have done a much more thorough job. All we'd have to do is not put any laser-guidance or GPS-guidance kits on those bombs, load up the bombers, and pound that place night and day from the uncontested air- we'd have flattened everything, killed everyone, and taken all the oil that everyone seems to think we're there for (but haven't yet reaped the rewards of, for some reason).
But we have done what we said we'd do- we've killed military targets- and there have been civilian deaths, to be sure. Who can not feel horrible about that? But it is a statement of fact- the "insurgents" and Sadaam Hussein's loyalists, and the clowns coming from Iran and Syria and Saudi Arabia have killed more Iraqi civilians than coalition troops have.
And as I've said before, let's not pretend that the guy with the mustache was some friendly old teddy bear of a guy. He's wiped out more Iraqis than we ever will. In fact, I was just reading about our impending draw down, and further troop withdrawals down the line. Odd how we want to stay there until we make sure the Iraqi government is stable.
Yeah, what a bunch of bastards we are.
And Jesus might bomb someone if it was with love balloons. Can't you just picture it? Jesus and Buddha and Mohamed, giggling on a rooftop, tossing down water balloons of love on unsuspecting people.
