No, because I am an American and I don't want my country defeated. Besides, I am sickened by the deaths already in Iraq.

The Iraqis, even most of them that detest the US wouldn't want a million Mogadishus either. We lost 18 soldiers. There where hundreds maybe thousand of Somali deaths. All around an awful situation.

However I do agree with the part of his discussion that deals with the need for human self-determination.

The majority of Iraqis have more self determination now then they did under Saddam, and their chance of having real self determination in a few years is much greater then if the Baathist where still in command.
