Nevermind the fact...we got him in another country. TO think we will affect the populace is a dream that will never be fullfilled. We didn't touch the drug warlords, so whatever 'good' we did there will be swallowed up by the crimelords on our departure.

Two failed wars...created by warciminals that are above the law. SIGH.
