Have we stabilized a strategically important oil producing ally?
Is democracy blossoming in Iraq? Elsewhere in the middle east or the Muslim world where it was not prior to lour invasion?

1. Was it the correct decision? That can't be answered yet. It will take years to figure that one out.
2. America hasn't been attacked, so it certainly isn't in more danger.
3. Is Iraq better off? Kind of tied to #1, but in certain areas the answer is undoubtedly yes.
4. I'm not sure what that means or what the relevance is.
5. See #4
6. Well, there is no longer a trading embargo on Iraq.
7. Blossoming? Yes. Is it where it needs to be yet? No.
