And is it really against their will? Against whose will? The insurgents, yes, but how much of Iraq is composed of insurgents? And how many greeted us initially? Do you remember when we toppled the giant statue of saddam?

If you read my earlier post, I said that I think that the U.S. is subtly heading away from democracy. Everything the government does takes away freedoms rather than spreads them, at least in this country.
And i've never heard an Iraqi say that they wanted the U.S. to come and liberate them from Saddam. Iraq has been in ruins since Saddam left. Not only is it a warzone, they don't even have the infrastructure of Bagdahd set up yet. They only get like 6 hours of power a day and clean tap water is almost non existent, at least last I checked. This should have been priority number one.
