The USA did the right thing in the Middle East? Really? When was that? All I've ever noticed is the perceived best interest of the US [incumbent administration] in action. Any positive outcome for others is due to afterthought or happy accident.
Whatever Bush's real intentions, Iraq persistently flouted UN resolution after resolution, committed mass murder of Kurds, Marsh Arabs, Shia Muslims etc. We know they had WMD's, don't anyone be so stupid to say they didn't, we (Britain, France and USA) sold them to them.
Someone had to stop the UN member nations looking dickless.
