re: We might as well whistle dixie. They ignore the negative, and whenever there is that rare positive, they hoot and holler like its a done deal.

Yep, they are so desperate that they ignore what a total disaster the Iraq policy has been. They declared victory when the statue came down; we said "let's wait and see what happens next". Now they are declaring victory again... when Iraq is in total chaos.

Delusions.


The sad part is that there are some people like MM who see this US intervention as another aspect of the white knight liberator we have convinced ourselves we play in the world. They find it hard to believe that the reality is much more cynical and self serving. You can't blame them......its runs counter to what we are taught starting in elementary school.

As for the rest. they simply are looking for retribution for the 9/11 attack. It doesn't matter who gets kicked so long as they are Muslim and living in the ME. And as for American leaders, its an effort to secure the oil and a place for our military bases.

Its hard to watch what's happening.
