"....more flowers and jubilation from the iraqi people."

They have well and truly screwed up there. I used to think they could stabilize the situation and restore order. I don't think that can happen any more. So we will likely have to beat a hasty retreat and a lot of civilians are going to die as local warlords fight over their pieces of the pie. And we bear full responsibility.

So we went into Iraq. And turned it into Afghanistan. The Afghanistan after we took out the Taliban, of course. I guess I can understand Smirk's opposition to nation building, he certainly didn't have the slighest clue on what to do.
