and About 90-100K Deaths and massive sectarian violence which the US ignited so that iraqis don't kill American's and keep fighting with each other.Iraqis treated like animals by US Armed Forces."it's gonna be labeled as 'another American defeat'....just like nam and gitmo"
How would that defeat have looked for which you appear to be cheering? Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia running the show, maybe?
Anyway, here's how I read it. Iraq's broke and on it's azz. We invade. No Saddam. No b'aath party. Kurds freed and no more gas attacks. Shias freed and no more mass slaughters. No WMD for the FORESEEABLE FUTURE. No invasions of Iran (and gas attacks), Kuwait, or Saudi Arabia. $66B in reserves and signing PRC oil contracts among others left and right. A whole bunch of purple-fingered elections in a democratic arab nation.
Some defeat.
Vietnam wishes now that they'd lost. They'd be fifteen years ahead.
I am sure they are very happy about this democracy.
