Ok--well it's pretty obvious to me that Iraq is "lost" due to its use as a political issue with no regards to a troop withdrawal's effects on our national safety. The Dems are running on a full on surrender strategy which they will be able to execute once they get the executive office. Republicans aren't much better--it's only a matter of time before they bend to focus group testing and public opinion polls
At least overtly.
Personally I'm not so sure if our eventual surrender in Iraq will be as disastrous as I previously thought.
I mean we had a much more pathetic evacuation from Vietnam...but after that we got down to what we do best. Paying other people to kill our enemies. The only problem is, we forgot to kill them when we were done (the Muj in particular).
We need our boys to take out Al Qeda--but I'm sure we can dump money and weapons on some Arabs to kill their own people which they gladly do for free anyway.
Why not have the Shia death squads work for us? They can surely wipe out all the Sunnis and Al Qedas. We just have to remember to kill Al Sadr & Co. once we're done. Especially before he realizes who's paying the invoice--we kind of forgot about that last step when we forced the Russians out of Afghanistan. |
