Truthfully, I know what I'd like to see happen, but I would never presume to know the course this nation should take, because I don't know the real facts. It would help considerably if IRAQ wasn't a splintered group of misfits and 'warlords'. The whole region is so screwed up, but it is the Arabs vs the Israelis', make no mistake about that. I would like to speed up the Iraqi's ability to govern and protect itself from insurgents, but having a deadline for this is like telling your 17 yr old that he's on his own when he's turning 18..with no real prospects for success. It's an F'n mess, and the more I think about it the more it pisses me off. All of America is concerned(although one can never know) and alarmed, but calling the President a madman and war criminal is absurd. The problems with America were here long before we showed up, and that's a scary thought! Have our own chickens come home to roost? Maybe. But we need to be part of the solution, and help our disaffected younger genration do the same...or else there might not be many more generations.  |
Timm,
Thanks for a well thought response.
