Then add to that the fact that they were against this war from the start, and you realize how slanted a picture you are getting.

I remain surprised by how many ways there are to ignore just how bad it is in Iraq. It's gone, best I can tell.

One of two outcomes most likely, a very, very loosely federated three zoned entity in which ethnic/religious cleansing is the order of the day and one and possibly two zones of the federation are theocracies. Or bloody, bloody civil war with just as bloody ethnic/religious cleansing as in the above.

One of the many ways Bush has remade positive aspects of Clinton's foreign policies into negatives is the ethnic/religious cleansing bit. The primary rationales for entry into Bosnia and Kosovo was to stop ongoing, immediate ethnic cleansing actions. In Iraq, Bush created the conditions for renewed ethnic cleansing with, to date, no way to slow them down or stop them.
