I kinda was holding my breath, hoping against hope that the kinder side of the US would leave a lasting impression in the MidEast. I guess it'll be just a lesson learned, I hope, with regard to what Iraq will become once we pull out.

Time will tell but I doubt the Post will tell you the truth about it.

And select their new dictator.

These people couldn’t survive without a leader that will dictate their every move. I give them six months after we leave and they will have another Saddam Hussein in place.

I have been saying this for more than two years, and I believe I will be vindicated in the long run, unfortunately.

Huh? That’s what the Iraqis have BEEN doing for the past couple of years. They couldn’t get that country running overnight!
