The scenes of jubilation from Baghdad should put a lot of countries at ease with the United States’ decision to wage war in Iraq.
The fact is that most countries, including friendly ones, misjudge the U.S. and fear its military and economic power.
The U.S. doesn’t follow old concepts like imperialism. It has no intention of taking over Iraq or pumping oil out of greed for an indefinite time.
This war will go down in history as a bold effort by the U.S. to rid millions of people from the tyranny of a dictator of the worst kind.
It’s time for countries around the world to evaluate the U.S. track record honestly and stop misjudging its intentions.
