The way of war has been tried. War to gain oil, to gain political control of people in another country. But it has failed. No cheap oil gained, and people all over the world lost respect for USA. The war and its aftermath has not taken away anything of the hate inside Iraq and between USA and the Muslim world. It has only increased. What is amazing what Obama has done in only three months to promote peace. The deep distrust between USA and the rest of the world is gradually melting away. It will take longer time to dissolve hate inside Iraq. Clinton was recently sent to promote a new attitude, but old wounds were too strong.

What is the problem with the war in Iraq. I agree with Obama, it is not the war itself but the mind-set that made USA start the war. To create mutual trust, love and respect all over the world will take time. But I see no other way.
