The Good of the War

America's 2003 invasion of the nation of Iraq and the subsequent removal of its dictator, though highly criticized and contested, was a necessary step toward the eventual freedom and well-being of the world as a whole. Saddam Hussein could no longer be allowed to remain in a position of power, and it was America's responsiblity to see that he was removed. Since America's occupation of Iraq, huge steps have been taken toward the nation's stability and self-governance under a fair and morally just ruling body. America is now receiving unprecedented cooperation with the Iraqi government and military, and the outlook for the future of Iraq seems bright. America can now look forward to continued cooperation with Iraq and to having a key ally in the Middle East.
