Nobody on FADG had one teeny tiny peep of insight that this was possible. There were multiple debates, no need to recreate, you and I were both here, but there was never one single solitary debate about the issue of providing security after the Iraqi regime imploded.

In retrospect, everybody who didn't raise it can take a turn at being dunderheads, including the peaceniks who chanted "no blood for oil" and the cynics who said "it's all about righting Poppy's wrongs," and the neocons and the paleocons and everybody else. Nobody, not one single person, raised this issue in advance.
