Iraq parallels to VietNam are growing by the week
Ramaddan attacks just like TET offensives

nonsense proclamations by clownish govt officials
bravado, pounding of chests, while soldiers' chests are blown apart

no way will we leave
its oil and airbases were our temptation
they will keep us there, too valuable

it is hard to make simple conclusions that the attacks are all being made by terrorists, insurgents, and Baath loyalists
that is so shallow
maybe they are patriots who object to occupation under the guise of reconstruction

this war will divide the USA just like VietNam did
plenty of good intentions
some progress to be sure
but impossible victory and so many deaths

what for?
airbases and oil
so far not a sign of democracy or weapons of mass destruction
