They did you know they took it but they din't enforce rule, also the idea of starting a flase war on the world stage looking for fake WMDs was dumb and the idea bringing 'democracy' to a people killing each other who is the better muslim is dumb. The wars today are not fought the same as they were hundreds of years ago, the USA taking it happened and controlling everyone didn't happen, cotnrolling every person to go to an approved neo Mosque or Christian Church or Scientology Temple or New Cult are two different things... islamics however force other to the will of the local islamist, they will deliberately target civiliians and muslims and kids and women in attacks like the Mumbai terror attacks, the WTC attacks on 911, Philippine Airlines Flight 434, the Charlie Hebo shootings and French concert bombings, Boston Marathon bombings, the Madrid train bombings, Bali bombings, the Yezidi genocides and massacres by ISIS ...if the United States ever fought the way muslim jihadist do all of islam would be wiped out within one week, they would have zero answer to the Might of the United States military if the US took its gloves off.
