I am sure that America has no intentions of becoming the occupier in that land unlike Israel.

As a stated policy, America wants to be the liberator.

Allied forces role is very defined, for a short period of time and clearly designed for the benefit of the people of Iraq.

ALso this was a smart thing that US is not in it alone. We are part of a bigger coalition, that cannot be given a bad wrap unless something disastrous happens for the world to see.

Thirdly unlike Israel, US forces do not intend to occupy the area for an indefinite period of time.

I am sure some people will try to draw analogies, but they will not hold.
