Timm,
We will NEVER stabalize Iraq. Never!
If we admit that to the world, maybe we can salvage some credibility.
There will not be "victory"...sorry to say.
I didn't get us into this.
Yes, the allies are watching. So are the enemies.
Though I do have a way out, I'm not providing the terms of the contract for my services here.
If the appropriate governmental agency screens this, they'll know how to contact me.
I won't be cheap, but I'll be a whole lot cheaper than what's in store.
I'll negotiate my contract with those that seek resolution that others are unable to provide.
