Why did the US invade Iraq?
So many different reasons have been thrown at us that I'm baffled and can't evaluate in what ways it moral and in what ways was it immoral.
We invaded iraq to kill people and break things.
You may hold that such is never justified.
You may hold that such is sometimes justified but not in this case.
I hold that it is justified in this case.
There is a time for such things, and as such a place is also needed.
Iraq was the best place available, when the time came to be for such to be done.
I've lived a violent life. When it's on, it's on. I'm alive today, because I can accommodate that reality and move on.
As a nation we'd been poked and prodded and hit one too many time.
Taking the battle to iraq and afganistan was akin to "taking the fight outside", as they say.

Iraq had nothing to do with this.I am able to see the point of view that we should stop our defenses at our border and prosecute attacks as if they were isolated crimes,
but I have to stand on my head to do it.
You may hold that there should not be such as there is, but there is,
and there will continue to be.
I'm not celebrating these realities, but I do not shrink from them.
Some people are as far removed from the realities that afforded them the expression of their God given rights as they are removed from the slaughter of their food.

Patriotism the last refuge for the scoundrel.
I just hope the next superpower is a bit less aggressive.
I don't disagree that the world is better with Saddam Hussein deposed and executed, but I don't think your explanation justifies the invasion as a worthwhile use of American lives or resources.Perhaps not, not directly.
I've been in jail with men incarcerated for crimes they did not commit,
but I never met an innocent man in jail.
The fight was on, and iraq was the best place to have it out, at the time.
We killed many people who needed to be killed, and many more innocents died in the process they initiated. Such is, always has been, and always will be.

You're never going to know. America will still be the world's superpower long after you're gone.
A bit of bad luck for you, heh?
