...I was right on the money. And had I known about the massive UN corruption and how deep France, Germany and Russia were in Saddam's corruption club, I would've been even more eager. Euro foot dragging now is understood - as is their massive guilt and debt owed to the Iraqi people who they helped to keep enslaved.

If the only benefit of the war was that the huge UN-Tyrant footsie games was revealed, it still would've been worth the price.

Millions have died because of this corruption. The several thousand troops we have lost, were sacrificed to this same corruption and greed - as the same tyrant-footsie game still exists in Iran. Enslaved Iranians can thank the power of their conservative regime to the foreign subsidizers of it.

And the bottom line is millions of Iraqis have been FREE to leave Iraq and start up somewhere else.

What burns folks hides is that they know Iraq will never be ruled by another dictator. The seeds have been planted. The taste of TRUE freedom, real elections and the hope for a real future is still with them and can never be taken away.

The insurgents - religious fanatics, foreign agitators and their suicide bombers - know this and they can't stand it. The chain reaction of freedom is already underway.

To be blind to it is the willful choice of Iraq's former looters.
