Unlike some others, I don't believe the true nefarious intent behind the Iraq War. It was an awful tragedy, one that was completely unnecessary, but I don't think they just wanted oil or just wanted to enrich their defense buddies. Those things happened,  and the excuses to get us into war were obviously lies, but people like Bush just tend to believe we have a duty to rid the world of tyrannical dictators and spread "democracy" and "freedom" to those places. Even though time after time, they reject our worldview, they do not view us as "liberators" and their countries end up in worse shape than prior. It is a truly delusional ideology.
