What did I expect....as sad as it sounds, Pretty much what we have now. I did however hope it would not last quite this long. I disagreed with the invasion of Iraq when it was first planned, but understood that my Government had access to information I did not. Thus I was relatively accepting of the "Need" to destroy a threat, but I still did not agree.
It is now quite obvious to me that I was mislead, and fooled into accepting the reasoning behind this Invasion . That said, I expected from the onset, resistance and death. I am rather suprised at the number of American deaths though, as I expected somewhat more from our Military Machine.
I will say this. When Bush made his "End of Major Hostilities" speech, I actually laughed out loud at him, Now I weep for everyone else.
