A case for war

From a guest editorial in the NY Daily News by Rep. Shays (R-Conn.):


Progress is not always swift or easy. In the three years since the Multinational Coalition liberated a troubled Iraq, progress toward a stable, free society has been halting, at times sublime and at times painful to watch. But it cannot be denied we have given the Iraqi people an opportunity for a better future.

Despite many missteps and misjudgments, democracy is taking root. There is no going back to the horrors of the dictator. The only course open to them, and us, is forward.

We must remember how we got in Iraq in the first place: lies from the leaders of our government. Let's show the Iraqis true Democracy and make the changes that are needed in this country now.
