Idealogical? But what if someone (like the Iraqis) CHOOSES to not accept your ideas? What do you do then? How do you force them to think the way you want them to? Brainwash the children and wait for them to become the adults in charge? So we spend the next ten years in Iraq? But what if their parents (who may have lost loved ones to our invasion and occupation) tell the kids at home that we are evil, so don't listen. We should leave that shithole Iraq to rot and bring our boys (and money) home.
