I say leave them alone, as they have been killing each other since the Sunni and Shia split in 632...They seem to enjoy it.....If it weren't for the oil, I doubt if other nations would be concerned.

Funny article. But that last line was just too true. And it's exactly why we're in the mess we're in over there. No one planned anything beyond "Mission Accomplished."
Mission accomplished sign was not referring to the Iraq war no matter how many talking point lies yours use

Well, since there never was a clearly defined mission and nothing was accomplished it's hardly surprising, eh?

The mission accomplished sigh was about the ship which had been on station for 18 months and returning home . The ship had accomplished its mission and was returning home . It had a clearly defined mission and it accomplished its mission no matter the spin

LOL!! Talk about spin. Yeah, and they just happened to make sure they positioned the president right in front of it while he just happened to be saying things like "Major combat operations in Iraq have ended. In the Battle of Iraq, the United States and our allies have prevailed." And "Our nation and our coalition are proud of this accomplishment — yet it is you, the members of the United States military, who achieved it.

What a strange and odd coincidence.
