Now the $64k question what did the war accomplished and was it worth it?

I'd say the jury is out on that one. We won't know whether the world is better off without Saddam Hussein in charge of Iraq and its oil wealth for a while, and perhaps never will be able to make the relative assessment since we don't know what Saddam would have done had he remained in power. I think that if most people could go back in time a decide what to go again, they would choose to not invade Iraq.

Personally, I support the idea of using the US's military strength to remove despots from power, but that obviously isn't going to become US policy as a result of Iraq.
