From day one, the hawks have told the rest of us how wrong our view is; that what we see and hear is not real. The truth is that you all have been wrong from before the very first shot had been fired.

The removal of Saddam's regime has been accomplished. The opportunity for the Iraqi population to live in a representative, tolerant society is in front of them for the taking. That's 95% of the goal of the invasion, so how you conclude that the "hawks" were wrong is beyond me.

Personally, I'm not in the camp that believes the population of Iraq is unable to govern themselves in the same fashion as free societies in other parts of the planet. Efforts are being made daily by the coalition and by Iraqis to neutralize the perpetrators of violence. Why don't you support those efforts, rather than whatever it is that you are supporting?
