Now as to Iraq being a success that too is undeniable. Since the goal was to go after terrorist sponsoring nations that played a role in the 9-11 attacks and the regimes that participated in that have been replaced that objective has been met.

That there have been no further terror attacks in America on a massive scale such as those perpetrated on 9-11 indicate that the wars have been successful. During the course of the two wars dozens of terrorist leaders have been routed out and killed or captured. Hundreds of lesser terrorist targets have also been eliminated. Perhaps thousands.

The fifteenth of the eighteen Iraqi provinces was turned over to Iraqi control recently. That is the majority of Iraq.

No insane son of a tyrant has tortured Iraqi athletes recently. Nor have they seen a woman, found her attractive, killed her husband and made her a sex slave until they tired of her and murdered her as well.

No Ma'am you are wrong. The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have been successful in their goals.
