Technically speaking, the war ended and was won when Saddam was captured. What's ending now is a misguided occupation, a practice that should be ended in principle for developed worlds; occupations have nothing but bad results, at least modern ones. I suppose Roman occupations that enslaved the population and stole resources were quite successful.

ahoy Lesser Known, welcome to USPO!

i suppose thats one way 'o lookin' at it.

still...when ye bomb a country to smithereens whilst tryin' to assassinate thar leader...level all thar ministry buildings to rubble, thereby cripplin' thar infrastructure...destroy thar electric plants and water purification plants, i am not sure ye can just say, "okie dokies, good luck iraqi folks, we're outta here!"
