And that's kinda what's happening there.
We should have NEVER invaded another country that didn't attack us first. And once we did...we should have NEVER stayed there.

I think there is a lot of truth in this....
While we believe Saddam's government was corrupt and horrible - and they were - perhaps it was what they needed. Here in the US (and hopefully most of the Western world) we don't walk into a shop and say "Oh, the shop owner is Muslim/black/Asian/Polish/Jewish so I cannot shop here". We just don't care. This is not the case in other parts of the world, and our culture doesn't fit in.
