Panetta: Iraq War was “worth it”

There is no question that the United States was divided going into that war,” he said. “But I think the United States is united coming out of that war. We all recognize the tremendous price that has been paid in lives, in blood. And yet I think we also recognize that those lives were not lost in vain. . . .

“As difficult as [the Iraq war] was,” and the cost in both American and Iraqi lives, “I think the price has been worth it, to establish a stable government in a very important region of the world,” he added.

So you see when you read shit like that above from Panetta, you know shit like that below is Bollocks

That "Stable Government" is issuing sectarian arrest warrants for trumped up charges of "terrorism"

This is going to go sideways eventually..

Further, the war was supposed to be about WMD and ties to 9/11.. Which obviously never existed.

They were a myth perpetrated by people like Leon.

WW4D?

What would four trillion dollars do?

Seal the borders and pay for deporting all the illegals?

Eliminate foreign energy dependance, create total energy isolation in public trust providing unlimited energy to American families and businesses for almost no cost?

Build a water infrastructure to eliminate flooding while providing irrigation to all?

An orange or apple tree on every corner?

Replace all smoggy vehicles if we're so concerned?

Make mass transit a feasible useful plan that actually works?

Nah, the four trillion is better off in Haliburton's bank account.

It was so worth it. Just ask the widows and orphans.

Good points, MOON!
Everywhere we have gone in this so called "War on Terror" we have spent money to rebuild so the people can bomb the hell out of what we've paid to build.
Does that make any sense?
This is why Dr. Paul makes more sense than anyone on the subject of going to war.
A little more of minding our own business and taking care of our own country would go a long way.
Just WHAT did we accomplish from going to war with Iran?
