You're trying to act as though "Mission Accomplished" is a lie unless there is global peace.

Capturing Saddam did little for the situation in Iraq. As you can tell violence has only escalated since we arrived and since "mission accomplished" was declared.

If the mission was to bring Iraq into chaos and into or near civil war then by all means "Missions Accomplished!".
