Nope.WMD were found, liar.it's pretty sad when you have to call DS1 & 2 wins. DS1 didn't accomplish much as DS2 was needed, and DS2 was a total failure as it was to find WMDs, of which there were none.We haven't won a war since WWII (including Iraq and Afghanistan), and even then we need help from our allies.Iraq and Afghanistan are not our war to win nor lose. As long as the Goverments n place there want us there, we will stay. But the second we are asked to leave, we are out of there. DS1 and 2 was ours to win or lose and we kicked butt. Not today. We are in more of a support role as it should be. If Iraq and Afghanistan can't fight their own battles then we shouldn't be fighting all their battles ourselves.
The mark of winning a war is to meet or exceed your end results. And during DS1 and 2 we did exactly that. Our objective in DS1 was to kick Iraq out of Kuwait. Our objective in DS2 was to capture and bring Saddam to justice. Both objectives were met. The problem was, after DS2, we had no clear well thought out objectives and screwed the pooch.
What was found was canisters that once had held chemicals. They had been buried. And that was about it. I believe that Saddam actually thought he had all that stuff. In the end, he didn't.
