Does it Matter?

Now that the war is over, my main purpose has been to look to the future of Iraq and our involvement in it, rather than to dwell on the past. I think the best thing we can do is take this troubling situation, and work to turn it towards the benefit of the Iraqi people and, ultimately, ourselves.

That said, it is troubling how little it seems to matter that we haven't found any Weapons of Mass Destruction. That was the most compelling reason to invade, and everybody knows it. I suspect the US will forgive President Bush for obfuscating on this matter; but other nations around the world are less likely to be forgiving. Anyway just something to think about.
