Iran is 95% Shiite, and Iraq is 65% Shiite and 20% Sunni. The two contiguous countries having hundreds of miles of border. By toppling and killing Hemingway and Hamburger loving Sunni Saddam Hussain and putting Shiite Nuri Maliki in power did you, President Bush, realize that you handed over Iraq to Iran, America's traditional adversary, on a silver platter!? Nuri started making trips to Iran to see his Ayatollah bosses soon after coming to power, in open defiance of the US.
I know I know, it was not you! If your brother Jeb Bush became the president as originally intended may be it would not have happened. Now even a fifth grader knows it were Paul Wolfowitz and VP Dick Chenny who were the main architects of Iraq invasion. I will let go Paul and concentrate on Dick. War means work, after destruction comes reconstruction. Dick sitting on Halliburton's Board channeled all destructed Iraq's reconstruction contracts towards it on a no-bid basis. How much did he make? I will leave it to your imagination.
Now Democratic President Barack Obama has been handling the Republican Party's dirty laundry in Iraq and Afghanistan since taking office. The US is beset by trillions of Dollars of high interest loans from now mighty China. After the Iraq invasion (it was not a War) ended and I looked at the hundreds of pictures of 18 to 25 Year young handsome Americans on the pages of LA Times I kept asking - WHY? WHY?? It could well have been your own son or daughter.
Saddam and his two sons had already enjoyed so much that they literally reached the saturation point and literally depleted themselves, now becoming dependent on artificial means (you know what) and also losing interest. Side by side of his number of palaces Saddam also built a great infrastructure in his country to which the entire population were a beneficiary. He had no WMD, no affiliation to Al-Qaeda, nothing to do with 9/11, and certainly no threat to the US or its interests. It was only a propped up theory that Saddam wanted to harm senior Bush. All Junior Bush had to do is pat Saddam on the shoulder and send him a few McDonald Hamburgers, and we would not be in such a mess.
Saddam had kept Al-Qaeda and other terrorists at bay and out of his country and domain for his own safety. He had stood up and looked around intent of diffusing his and Iraq's wealth and power for the betterment of the general populace, and Shiite and Sunnis were living in relative harmony and prosperity.
