As I wrote in another post, we have accomplished our original goal in Iraq.

We expect other people to instantly embrace our ideals and concepts of holy democracy. We wallow in the freedoms we have and do not understand why other people do not lust for similar freedoms. True democratic freedom is a concept that is mostly alien to most of the people in Iraq. They cannot understand it and the price it exacts of those who experience it. We have given them an opportunity to pay the price and earn their own freedom. The price is giving up the past and working together toward the future that is possible. Until they see this they are doomed to be, as they see it, an occupied country. Until they give up fighting amongst themselves like heavily armed children they can never be free as they should be. Of course, American-style freedom is a type of religious failure to hardline Muslims. We must let them select their own poison and drink it themselves.

We did what we felt we had to do and we did it well; as expected. We can all take pride in our military personel and the job they can do when politicos let them. We must stop sacrificing for an ungratefull mob. How much oil is one more son or daughter's life or limb worth.

They've accomplished nothing, other than handing Iraq to Iran.

The so-called "war on terror" has been a fraud from the very beginning and the rest of the so-called "coalition" got the hell out of Iraq as soon as they recognized that this was just an American-made fraud.

Blair, like other leaders who led their troops into Iraq, is being removed by his own people for doing so. The same fate may await the leaders of Canada and Australia .. who will follow in the footsteps of the leaders of Spain and Italy and now England.

As soon as the US meets its Saigon Moment in Baghdad, Iraq will move even closer to Iran and become our next enemy.

Hundreds of thousands of dead people on all sides of the fight, billions upon billions of taxpayer dollars thrown away and into the pockets of the plutocrats, only to end up with Iraq as our next enemy and to empower Iran beyond their wildest dreams.

Great accomplishments.
