NEVER FORGET:

I noticed people throwing shoes at Saddam statues. Apparently this journalist worked for the Butcher and unlike his opponents he escapes with his life with the “insult.”

The fox correspondent in Baghdad reports that he was exercising his ‘free speech’ according to his employer tv station, and won’t be censured. BDS rises in Iraq.

The minority Sunnis had ruled over majority Shiites for decades. The Sunni insurgents had been trying to reestablish that rule. The Shiite insurgents would have kicked their butts over the long run, resulting in a Sunni/Shiite civil war that would have drawn the entire region in.

Perhaps our stopping that was not a good thing. It would have killed most of the radicals on either side over time.
