Huh? We’re plagued by Iraqi refuges fleeing the consequences of our intrusion? I think this guy’s world view is too tightly coupled into his anti-American media sources for his opinions to be worth any more than witnessing an interesting train wreck. Please pass that on ;^)

Exactly, this guy is saying that the muslims are causing all the problems and then in the next sentence saying it is the Americans causing all the muslim problems.

I guess they spike the coffee in the Vienna coffee houses with abisinthe.

Just an observation. I am extremely proBush on most issues. His idealism and a desire to help the Iraqis propelled him into Iraq along with the WMD issues. Now that we have been at this for several years, I better understand why Sadam ruled as he did. These people do live, in large measure in midevil times. Not all,but many. I believe Sadam ruled ruthlessly because that is the only way to control that population. He was unnecessarily cruel to anyone he even thought might be an enemy. But, he did not have IEDs going off in the country. I believe the reason is because, if there was a wiff of criticism he crushed it ruthlessly and immediatly without concern for collateral damage. But there were no IEDs going off in any of the cities. I wonder how Sadam would deal with a foreign invaders trying to take over his country. I hope when the Americans are able to leave Iraq the standing military will be less shackled in its response to terrorism. I hope they do not have to worry about pantyhose on the head of terrorist that just days prior were trying to kill them. I hope they don't degrade to what will be tempting, that is, to respond so indescrimminantly that collateral damage is extraordinary.

I still believe Bush has to succeed in stablizing Iraq. We cannot afford to loose and ceed a nation state to alZarquari or benLaudin. For that kind to have the revenues of oil rich Iraq to foment and export terrorism on a scale we have not seen would certainly follow.

Damn, I want our military to come home ASAP.
