You guys win....


Iraq is still a dictatorship under one man rule. People are still getting gassed by their government. Deaths of children by the hundreds of thousands due to sanctions dear Saddam could heave ended at a moments notice.....

Yes, you are right.

Iraq isn't free.

yep.


You win.

That is a false argument. No one is stating those things to be true today. The actual points put to you were: US foreign policy goals in Iraq, and elsewhere historically, never did have "freedom" as a top priority, and in most cases, it was not a priority at all. In Iraq, freedom was used as political spin, as the true motivations for the action would have been unsellable to the American public.

No, you win.

Iraq not free...

Got it.
 
Odd response from a poster whose first two posts in this thread mentioned the The Spanish Inquisition and Iraq.

You win.

Yet you can't let it go.

You have shown me the error of my ways. You have demonstrated Iraq isn't free. They are not in control of their resources. Thet are not a representative government elected by the people.

Got it.
