What is Obama's position on the Iraq War?

Answer 1

Obama believes that going to war in Iraq was a mistake, which says that all the soldiers that have fought for this country under George Bush might have lost their lives for no reason. Obama opposed expanding the war to Iraq because al Qaeda was in Afghanistan and Pakistan and he felt that the war in Iraq would distract America from capturing bin Laden. When America began occupying Iraq, there was no al Qaeda in Iraq. Al Quadra in Iraq was created during America's occupation of Iraq when America controlled Iraq. The reason for invading Iraq stated by George Bush was that Iraq had weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). The data supporting the existence of WMD was wrong, either deliberately manipulated by George Bush, or he made a mistake. After it was proven that Iraq had no WMD, George Bush said America must continue fighting until Saddam Hussein was captured. After Saddam Hussein was hung by the neck until dead, George Bush said we had to stay for Nation Building. That means that we must stay until the Iraqi's decide that they want American style government - Not British style, not Indian style, not French style, not Jordan style, not Egyptian style, no they must choose American style government before George Bush will leave Iraq! 70% of all Iraqis and the Iraqi puppet government put in place by America wants the American occupation of Iraq to end. George Bush's popularity has dropped to under 25% in America because he refuses to listen to Americans and end the occupation of Iraq.
