For years U.S. policy was designed to keep a lid on the quarrels and problems between the Sunni and Shiite Muslims in Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran. The majority of Saudi Arabia consisted of Sunni Muslims while the majority of both Iran and Iraq were from the Shiite sect. The policy of the U.S. was to support a strong Sunni president in Iraq to keep a balance in the region. This helped Saudi Arabia and Iran. Iraq acted as a buffer between the two. Why Gorge Bush went to war to upset this balance is a mistake that needs answering.
Just think if we NEVER invaded their country
1) All the US dead soldiers would be home with their families
2) All the US injured soldiers would be "whole" and home with their families
3) All the dead INOCENT people in Iraq would be alive today
4) TRILLIONS of US money would be HERE in the USA and could have been used to help our country
5) YES SADDAM should still be alive - and that would be the people of Iraq's problem....... they probably would have joined in the Aram Spring and ousted him with little or no USA involvement .Thank you George Bush for starting this unnecessary way
There will never be any peace in the future, Iran and Iraq will join forces and be at odds with the rest of the Arab Sunni Muslims causing death and American involvement for years to come. I see no end in sight. The oil companies will still be in charge of the oil flowing through the region. That was the point all along was it not ?
