3. It is a mistake to keep US troops in Iraq for some "peace with honor"

We should withdraw the troops as quickly as possible, and let the Iraqi people take charge of their own affairs without anymore American meddling.

The irony is that the US helped bring Saddam Hussein's Ba'ath Party to power in Iraq, and that the US (and Britain) in the 1980s conspired to break their own laws in order, in the words of a Congressional inquiry, to "secretly court Saddam Hussein with reckless abandon", giving him almost everything he wanted, including the means of making biological weapons.
