America is the world police. things we should have done better in iraq? not gone at all. You cant just take a country you find under developed and jerk it forward 500+ years. There are going to be consequences, especially with people so resistant to change in Iraq. And before people question, I'm American and we have to wake up people.

Also, I'd bet that if they did have a whole littany of govt rebuilding contracts lined up and signed before the invasion even began, Liberals would be jumping up and down saying the war was waged only for corporate profit, "and here are our examples - - lucrative govt contracts! Those bastards!" Thats how it goes here. You can't win for losing when it comes to Liberals.

You've got a good point, and it should be taken into account. I'll point out, though, that the Republican senator I quote wasn't too happy with the progress over there either. Ah well - a Senate commission will get to the bottom of it eventually.

Im not saying this is good. But the hand of justice and investigation is slow. But I must say it all needs review, and overhaul. I'm never in favor of any company not fulfilling its obligations with a govt contract, and on budget. Never. And RE the reconstruction, nobody could have contracts ready for companies when the invasion JUST BEGAN. How do they know how long it will last? Id bet that if you researched govt war contracts, they most likely weren't issued until after the conflict had ended.

You have a point. And as a US conservative, I agree with you that these things should be completed, and our money not wasted. There are circumstances, though, like terrorists blowing up power stations and lines after they are built, contractors abducted and killed, etc. The terrorists don't want any progress to be made, because it will task the rebuilding, and the democracy and the stability. And govt contracts do have a time factor, whether they finish or not.

The more news I see on Iraq makes me very happy that my husband changed his mind about re-enlisting in the Navy. I would not be able to watch the news or even visit You Tube if he had done that. It's stressful enough watching it without having a loved one involved.

Great point regarding the failure to plan to rebuild Iraq. Regardless of the reason for this, it is extreamly difficult to kick start and get the ball rolling when that does not happen. Moreover, I suggested orginally it would have been better to build Iraq without taking out Sadam or we could have covertly taken him out. Consider if we spent the same amount of man hours on construction, could that have been less as effective as war?
