Six days??"!¡ He and others have warned this would go badly for MONTHS!!!!!! Bush promised it would be a precision war, a quick incisive victory. After all, he'd disarmed the country and knew where everything was, 50% of the population is under age 15 and the army had been decimated. Years of sanctions against the country preventing food deliveries and medical care further eroded this small country's ability to fight back. And of course, the second the invasion started, the Iraqis were going to welcome the Americans with trusting open arms. Saddam is an unequivocal monster. Since the invasion, the Iraqis want him. How do you think we now look to them? Not good. Experts warned that if this war didn't go absolutely perfectly, this would be Vietnam redux with a vengeance. Rome HA!!! This is looking tragic, as in Greek. IMO and others', too.
