[QUOTE="Wheel Gun, post: 2532251, member: 19286"] This is kind of the problem with nation building. We did everything for those people to earn them personal freedom and a democracy to elect their rulers. But the problem is that unless you earn those rights yourself, they don't seem as important as they should. The Iraqis should have stepped up and made themselves a strong nation, given the push we gave them. It seems, though, that their Islamic culture and belief system makes them more comfortable being ruled and dominated by someone. I feel for those people, but no more nation building. I mourn for the American lives lost removing their despots and home-grown terrorists. I'd like to think we're done over there, but they build great terrorists over there and they just won't leave us alone. [/QUOTE]
