Did you really expect gratitude from the Iraqis? Do you expect them to act like Americans now?

After we imposed ourselves into that country, spending a fortune and incurring massive debt, we won't even get any oil in return for it.

Only American politicians could come up with a strategy that dumb and an end result that worthless.

It amounts to "throwing pearls before swine, with not even a pork chop in return."
