Well I must say that, no I personally would not have taken any pleasure in the deaths of those civilians, but I must say that I can't place any blame... but it does bring up the question... why do some of us americans hate sooo much. Is it the media, is it a general lack of knowledge of the muslim world, or are we just placing blame on an easy target, a target which ultimatley serves as a sponge for our fear and insecurity? Just think about it before responding.
i think the sponge theory is most accurate. being hated by a lot of countries, trying to invade countries for peaceful purposes and screwing up, always expecting someone to attack, leads to out bursts.

Must be hard having all that power and not knowing how to use it.

This whole escapade seems mostly to have handed control of Iraq to Iran.
WTF were we thinking?
Democracy over there? They don't want it.
I still believe in the ideal, but have abandoned hope on the outcome.
Let them kill each other.
That's precisely why it was a bad idea. Iraq is essentially now run by religious extremists. Which was bound to happen. If Saddam had been left in power he wouldn't have done much - quality of life in Iraq would probably be higher than it is at the moment.

Iraq was a mess. But it was a self contained mess. We should have stayed well clear. Harsh, but true.

Good Times Dude!! Good Times!! plus one for you, well put.    You all ain't seen nothing yet. Wait till Peak Oil and climate change takes hold and resource wars break out on a global to backyard scale.  Everyone talks about fixing the problems but I don't have that much faith in people. Same thing goes in Iraq. They talk about making it a better place, but they only really want to die and go to heaven anyways. If you've ever been to the middle east you could guess why. It's the butthole of the planet. (thats why the shit that is oil comes out there)
