Perhaps it is because I grew up in a very disadvantaged area. I live in a middle class neighborhood, but I'm very comfortable in low income areas. Many of my friends will make comments like - I couldn't live like that. I could. I did. I did it happily. I didn't know that I was disadvantaged. I believe that there are many Iraqis who were perfectly happy living under Saddam.

Here is my take on what should happen. We are responsible for putting things back the way they were. Give the money that we would spend to the UN to administer, admit we were wrong and get the hell out. I didn't want to be there in the first place, but I'm willing to pay my share to make repairs in Iraq.
