Just saying
no, i can't see that, because that's not the big picture. The "big picture" is not that the US wanted to "help" the iraqi's. If that were the case, then the war would have been pitched to congress as a humanitarian intervention as opposed to a move in defense. You have no logic or facts backing up that statement.
