What options did you consider?

Of the ones I can think of it's about the worst.  How about securing
Afghanistan?  How about putting full force behind capturing Osama Bin
Laden?  How about reserving our lives and money for a real threat
from, say, North Korea or Iran - 2 nations that claim to have WMD vs.
Iraq which denied it.

In a nutshell, Iraq was a gamble that:

1.) We'd be welcomed with open arms,
2.) Democracy would blossom fast,
3.) That democracy would spread throughout the Middle East,
4.) The WMDs we were sure they had would be taken off the market, and
5.) The quick defeat would show the world how strong and smart America is.

Not a single one of those goals happened.
