You have to be insane. Iraq is fucked. The longterm is unkown, but right now - It is a giant shitstorm. There is absolutely NO WAY it is currently in better shape than it was before the invasion. I just don't accept that, It's total shit. (I'm excluding Afgahnistan, because It isn't in the same state).

I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to say here on account of the terrible indecipherable sentence - But it looks as though you are turning this, once again, into something it's not. It's not about sides. Not supporting the U.S actions DOES NOT mean you automatically support the terrorists/insurgents. This isn't a sports match. I support the innocent people caught up in all this, American troops and Iraqi citizens.

That is an ignorant generalisation of the Islamic religion brought about by the media and the government exploiting paranoia. Why all of a sudden in the last 5 years, has everyone instantly become fearful of islamic fundamentalists coming to blow them up? 10 years ago, there was none of this on the scale it is now. It's called fear-mongering.

So you can rest easy, and take my word for it when I say not every muslim is ready to blow himself up to kill a few "zionists."

You must be on more drugs than me.

You were putting words in my mouth, you were telling me what my opinion was - and you were totally wrong. Don't shit me.

Let me put it too you this way, by rephrasing your question: Other than having a bargaining chip on the world stage, what in the world would the U.S do with nukes?
