The short anwer is the outcome was right for a lot of wrong reasons. Regardless of any rhetoric, the only people who are going to benefit from any of this are going to be the Iraqi people.

There is a new saying "America bashing is the new opiate of the intellectual". Nothing America does will ever be seen as 'right', and IMO a lot of that stems from the fact that we are a successful democratic, capitalist republic that had the gall to last for 200+ years.

As an aside, I don't think I've heard anything really negative about Spain.
