Just me?

Am I the only one who thinks that the war is basically being fought for nothing? Well I wont totally say for nothing but to me it seems like we are helping a country that dosent want our help. Hell we arent helping them too greatly in my opinion--ok so we did get Saddam but i'd venture to say 75 percent of the people there hate us. They do not want us there--I have read several articles and polls that say that we arent wanted there and we need to stop being the worlds police. I know that the US beleives in freedom and I dont see a thing wrong with that--but why are we spending billions of dollars over there when we could be using that same money to rebuild cities and schools and help the elderly and poor and disabled right here on US soil. Please dont get it so twisted to where you think I dont cherish our military and admire them for standing up and fighting to try to stop people like Saddam and Bin Laden--I respect our military to the fullest. Its just upsetting to have your family leave to fight for people who dont want them in their country only to have that same family member come back in a body bag.
