Clash of Civilizations By MAUREEN DOWD Published: May 13, 2004 nytimes.com WASHINGTON Testifying before the Senate yesterday, General Richard Myers admitted that we're checkmated in Iraq. "There is no way to militarily lose in Iraq," he said, describing the generals' consensus. "There is also no way to militarily win in Iraq." Talk about the sound of one hand clapping. And they say John Kerry is on both sides of issues. Sounding like Mr. Kerry, General Myers summed up: "This process has to be internationalized. The U.N. has to play the governance role. That's how we're, in my view, eventually going to win." <more> Conclusion: The hawks, who promised us garlands in Iraq, should have recalled the words of the historian Daniel Boorstin, who warned that planning for the future without a sense of history is like planting cut flowers.
