The neo-cons are going to find themselves in a catch-22 quandry here. On the one hand, they claim they want to bring democracy to Iraq. That means self determination by the Iraqis, not an American imposed vision upon them. The Iraqis seem to be saying, 'US, get out now and let us rule ourselves, like you said you would'. On the other hand, the real goal of the 'cons seems to be empire building and control of the Middle East, which requires forceful imposition of will upon those who take a contrary stance. Often against the interests and desires of those who have been conquered. Not very democratic. Hand in hand with installation of a puppet government, while the favored American corporations plunder the spoils. Which will it be, neo-cons ?
