Stop pretending like all people are stupid. I think "They're going to kill us" ranks above "humanitarian mission" He doesn't need to say it for us to know it. You don't like Bush so the war is bad. Look at the bigger picture! We overthrew a dictator who made a habit of torturing and slaughtering massive amounts of his own and surrounding nations people. A guy who we believed had WMD's, said he had WMD's and said he would use them against America when he could. Now we are killing people who kill their own arbitrarily to prove a point and who want to kill us more then anything else while spending our money, money from the tax payers of the most philanthropic country in the world to build schools, housing, industry and more, train law enforcement and military and give the lives of service men and women in stabilizing a nation from people from within the country and surrounding nations.
What an awful, awful War.
