doesn't anyone understand the enormity of

what we have actually done here? how we illegally and immorally invaded a country who posed no threat to us (nor ever attacked us OR EVEN WANTED TO ATTACK US)? we made countless enemies not only in that country but many others. WE LITERALLY CREATED TERRORISTS OUT OF ORDINARY CITIZENS. we destroyed millions of lives by our invasion of iraq. not only the lives of strangers but the lives of american women and men who, if 'lucky' enough to survive being sent over there ONCE, TWICE, THREE TIMES, FOUR TIMES OR PERHAPS FIVE TIMES, certainly are coming home either physically fucked or mentally fucked (how could you NOT be?)?

why did we allow those mad men (king george and his court) to do this to the ENTIRE world? we did. we allowed it. there is NO taking backsies either

nope
(of course i understand we certainly cannot leave the iraqis high and dry now that we've f**ked them)

Iraq Far From U.S. Goals for Energy
$50 Billion Needed To Meet Demand

By Dana Hedgpeth Washington Post Staff Writer
Iraq's crucial oil and electricity sectors still need roughly $50 billion to meet demand, analysts and officials say, even after the United States has poured more than $6 billion into them over more than four years.
Since the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003, the Bush administration has focused much of its $44.5 billion reconstruction plan on oil and electricity.
