this is not off topic, we cannot and should not forget the millions of people that suffered with our "Mistake" of invading Iraq.

We ask 'why do they hate us' but do we ever really examine what we have done to others.

You make a false leap to state that I have implied the US is responsible for every ill in the world and then follow this with WTF and OMG as if to solidify your false assumptions.

What the US does has consequences and many people realize that fact.

"I will never forgive them for this."

Can you at least acknowledge that there are millions of people who might have the same reaction to our shock and awe campaign, people who lost parents, siblings etc.

Do you believe they should just all forgive an invasion that turned their country into rubble and their lives into hell.
