Freedom for Iraq was a good goal if that was Americas primary motivation.

but freedom at any price?
If you say freedom at any price you could end up with a lot of "free" corpses and nothing else.

How many innocent deaths can you justify in the goal of freedom?
Can you justify causing sectarian violence that may go on for centuries as a result of achieving freedom?

There comes a point where the cost outweighs the benefit.
I think that it was clear that such a point would be crossed if America invaded Iraq.
I think that it is clear that that point was crossed a long time ago and the cost increases every day.
