All it cost was untold suffering and a million dead Iraqis to overthrow the dictator America installed in the first place.
Source?
I googled it, results vary from 250k to 500k, so not quite a million but still, that's a lot of deaths. Either way, the US government's real reason for that war was not to save the country from dictatorship ...
Point of Clarification. Are you calling Ghazi Mashal Ajil al-Yawer a dictator, or referring to an earlier point in time?
