Now now Mr Sargent. No basis for your claim that people are better off now. If there needs to be a revolution in a country due to oppression it should come from within that country. Just about everyone in the world knows that the US thought it was in the US interests to invade Iraq. It had nothing to do with liberating IRAQ. If the US wanted to liberate people from oppressors there are stacks of places they could do so. The only difference is those places dont align with US interests and oil.
In oppressed countries such as under Marcos in the Phillipines people power saw to his removal.
I think with a Democrat President and Congress US policy will change if it is to regain a position of respect in world affairs. The Bush Rumsfeld approch has been a disaster.
