Should we be there? Thats up in the air. The reality of the situation is that we are there, and we need to stay the course.
This war is nothing close to what Afganistan was either in intent or as far as the fighting goes. The only real similarity is that our presence there pisses of muslims, which is funny because the Iraqi's couldn't be happier that we are there. We did good by getting Saddam out, we are doing good because we are bringing peace and democracy to an area in the world that NEEDS a kick in the nuts to bring it in the right direction.
Personally I think we are justified by being in Iraq. Saddam was a douche. He disobeyed and spat in the face of the U.N. and the world for 12 years on more then a dozen resolutions. Iraq did harbor terrorism, yes people there are other terrorists groups out there besides Al Qeada. Saddam had weapons and just like before he wasn't about to give them up. If you think he didn't have weapons you are purposely turning your a blind eye.
