But with competent leadership, this war could end with the Iraqi people far better off, the United States far better off, and AQ significantly impaired as a result of it.

AQ has more members than ever (AQ in Iraq didn't exist before the war), the majority of Iraqi people will be Talibanized (see the current rights of women in Iraq), and the US gains a prime ally, for Iran and together they will control the largest oil reserves in the world.

And we've invested $3 Trillion (yes that is a good estimate of what this war will eventually cost), over 4K soldiers lives, unknown other US casualties and a really unknown number of families and individuals psychologically torn apart.

You Neo's and your "Pleasant Valley, Iraq" fictions make me sick. Been listening to this complete bull shit for six years now.
