Hey! The Iraqis burned their own library! Why can't they do that if they want to?!

We liberated them. . . We gave them liberty!

Are you saying that our government should have imposed our government onto them?

If we had, that would have been wrong too. . . yes?

We should have attempted to protect them from themselves?!

Sure. . .!!

<tongue in cheek>

We would have been damned if we did and damned if we didn't!
This was, & still is, a no win situation when it comes to trying to please everyone. Impossible to do.

We gave them a horse.
We helped lead them and their horse to water.
They decided to poison the water instead of letting the horse drink!

That's too fricken bad!
