So, lets see. As of Aug. 22, 2005 1,868 Americans Brits, and 101 "other" as listed by icasualties.org have been killed in this war and and then there are the 2944 Iraqi Police and Guardsmen Deaths.
And now the long awaited Iraqi constitution is just about here, a shining example of republican democracy, written with the blood of American soldiers, an example for the Middle east.... And what do we have? Islamic law in the constitution.
So, what was this whole mess for again?
WMD
Regime Change
9/11
Spreading Democracy
war on terror
noble cause
Islamic State.....{do have a winner yet?}
