If it is such a great expense to our nation, then why not allow the UN to help us bear the burden? You are acting like it's a prize won because you basically said that since the UN didnt help us win, we cant share it. Its our prize not theres.

If the US truly wanted Iraq to become an independent country ASAP, then they would gladly accept help from other nations to speed the process.
