What do you think of the Iraq war/current situation?

Let me be the first to share my opinion. I think the current situation in Iraq is horrible. I don't know why High level Military officials in the Pentagon claim that the situation is improving in Iraq or has improved compared to what it was like in the past. Now you hear of Sucide bombings against innocent Iraqi's by either Pro-Saddam extremists or Al Qaeda. And also how it is unsafe for foreigners to travel in the country. The War was the wrong thing to begin with, and so was removing Saddam Hussein from power. And doing so there came consequences Lots of innoncent Iraqi lives and U.S. solider lives have been lost. Also millions of U.S. dollars spent, Iraq becoming a haven for muslim Extremists thanks to Saddams removal. All this because of some false intelligence such as weapons of M Destruction and Saddams link with Al Qaeda. By the way Saddam Hussein always opposed Al Qaeda just as Al Qaeda opposed his dictatorship in Iraq. Also Saddam Hussein was eniemies with Iran and the current Iranian President Dr Mahmoud Ahmadi Nejad(like Al Qaeda). Also Saddam Hussein was believed to have supported muslim Extremist group(s) in Palestine. Saddam Hussein was accused of killing Shi'te muslims, Kurds and torturing Iraqis and others and killing civilians during the Gulf War back in 1990 I think it was. Anway I think the U.S. should clean up the mess that they brought into Iraq even if it means staying in Iraq for the long run or so. We bear the burden of whatever goes in Iraq if we give up and abandan it. Also Iraq has nothing to do and never did with our security back here in the United States the main reason to stay in Iraq is to clean up the mess there but I don't think that the current U.S.-Iraqi security pact is bad. I hope that Iraq does not fall into the hands of the Al Qaeda who will enforce certain practices deemed un-Islamic by Islam. Al Qaeda does not care about just fighting the infedel occupation no they want a Islamic caliphate. They claim that they will be rewarded by God in heaven for establishing the Islamic Caliphate.
