There are quotes from Bush and White House officials that the reasons we were invading Iraq were because of WMD and to execute a "pre-emptive strike." The liberation angle was NOT the reason we invaded.
Am I pleased that Saddam is no longer able to hurt his people? Of course!
But there are human rights abuses far worse than the ones committed in Iraq, unfortunately. And to think we went in only to liberate is naive at best.
