Bush and Cheney hijacked this country's military to carry out an oil war in Iraq. It's just that simple. While there, they thought they'd help out the Sunnis throughout Arabia and do what they could to annihilate the Shi'ites in the region and pick a fight with Iran.
The Shi'ites have been radicalized for decades because the lineage to their Holy Men has been grossly assaulted and damaged by the Sunnis that would like to seem them all dead.
The Shi'ite minority in Islam needs our promise to restore their dignity and a nation(s) of their own to insure their survival and perhaps that will return civility to their people.
The Sunnis need to behave while stopping the radical Islamists that plague them and the West.
