While I would probably agree with much of what you said, your statements are not facts, but opinions. There are probably an equal number of persons (military and otherwise) who would side differently from your retired Marine colonel and those other soldiers. But then, you already knew that. It wouldn't make it right, but I'd say that Iraq should be paying us a huge sum of remunerations for all of the expense this war has cost us. Of course, no money can ever replace the lives lost in this seemingly senseless, ill-planned, mis-managed offensive. I would think that an overwhelming majority would have been in favor of bypassing Iraq altogether and instead pursuing Osama Bin Laden in Afghanistan with as much military might. Still---many bad guys (terrorists/jihadists/fanatics) have gone onto Allah and are no longer here to threaten/fight us.
