Our Ongoing Occupation

The U.S. involvement in foreign countries has been a trend in the countries history since the beginning of its existence. More recently the war in Iraq has made headlines all over the globe. Without the permission of the United Nations, the U.S. launched a "preemptive strike" on Baghdad. The caused outrage in the Middle East and around the world. Its been 7+ years since the occupation in Iraq began and still the U.S. is running the country. With President Obama we have seen major progress towards an exit from a region but I believe it needs to happen much faster. If want to have any progress in this region we can't be taking over countries. Simple as that. As soon as we begin to recognize the Muslim countries as people and not just a bother, you will see a massive change in the overall mood of the Middle East.
