Ike, re: "But you [people who support war for the liberation of Iraq] need to realize that your agenda is not Bush's agenda. Your motives are not his motives. He is playing you, and all of us, for fools. Don't be taken in. He isn't serious about making the long term commitment that will be necessary to secure a democratic state in Iraq. And, as a result, he is going to make this world an even bigger mess, and an even more dangerous place than it was before he became President."
Questions: 1. I was a little confused...is this your view, Ike? 2. If so, do you think that President Bush's commitment may be to a more optimistic end game?...Does he realize the challenge and commitment needed to reorient the ancient hatreds into a function society? Is he overlooking the history of Northern Ireland or the Arabs vs Israelis, in his honest assessment of the level of effort needed, or, as the writer above said, is he purposefully taking people in, in your opinion?...if so, to what end?
