We are still fighting the war are we not? That is the problem.
Well, please make up your mind. If we are still fighting the war because there is still a significant armed opposition to our presence, then we have not established the prerequisites to impose our mandate on the country so we are not the occupying power, but merely a power contending for that role.
Hear hear, and in a worse state than when we began and after such tremendous expense. Can anyone be reading the headlines from Iraq and not get the sense that this is slipping ever further into a nightmare of our own design and choosing? That said, I'd like to see more interviews with troops on the ground with regard to Rumsfield's job performance. If they're happy, then I guess we should be too.
