The timing is just dumb. How about passing this when the Turks did not let us use airbases that might have led to a very diff. outcome in Iraq. People forget we could have got a hell of a lot more soldiers into Iraq quicker if Turkey would have helped by letting use bases. This was a huge problem. This is part of the reason I believe that the infrastructure of Iraq was destroyed, we did not send more troops to begin with so we could get the heck out quicker. Looting was rampant all over and the wrong guys got the guns very early on. Huge mistake. Of course Turkey did not want the Kurds set free. The occasionally harassing of the Kurds by Hussein was welcomed. Well guess what... it worked out the wrong way for Turkey and US. |
