"Unlike Afghanistan, Iraq was a war of choice" Obama, at the Cairo Surrender
You're right, Presidente. It was a war of choice. We can let Saddam Hussein ignore the treaty that ended the Gulf War and ignore international law and have chaos (Quite like the chaos you're allowing with North Korea and Somalia.) Or we can demand that treaties are lived up to. The choice of death and destruction falls on Saddam Hussein, not America. Hussein made a choice that was fortunately fatal for him.
When you call Iraq a war of choice, Mr. Obama, you are spitting on the graves of the over 4000 troops who gave their lives in Iraq. You diminish the sacrifices these men and women made for YOU. The brave men and women in Iraq weren't there because of some whim by Bush and Cheney. They were there proving international law, when just, must be obeyed by agressive nations like Iraq was.
I thought the taught international law at Harvard. How stupid of me.
