Is This Worth It?

This story from Yahoo, points to the pain-and-suffering some of our soldiers are facing. At the end of this conflict we will have tens of thousands of permanently disabled veterans, they may be looked upon as a permanent wound or scar from our actions in Iraq. Or we maybe able to look upon them with pride and admiration for the work they have done in freeing another nation.

The hard thing to show is the benefit that may come from this conflict in Iraq. What benefits will we receive from freeing 40 million people; Iraq may turn into a fundamental state that hates the United States like Iran. Or it may turn into a secular state that resents United States similar to France.Maybe they will become just another free nation trying to live quietly and peacefully.
