Invasion really accomplishes nothing. It doesn't create an understanding or agreement.
It is merely a tool for expressing a power play to satiate an anger by the aggressor.

The reason Iraq was a huge mistake is that those who were in control of foreign policy knew nothing about Iraq or the Iraqi people so they didn't know how they would react.
There were hardly anyone in the state department under Bush who even knew how to speak Iraqi Arabic or Farsi. It was a joke.

It's so easy to be an armchair soldier and rail against injustices that are manufactured by media and pundits. It's also easy to be a "good German" and take orders without examining what the effect of those actions would be on those being affected.

All the factoids in the world will not explain away the futility of the Iraq invasion. Many of these propaganda devices are used in any war to justify atrocities.
