LOL, win what war. I would say a better analogy of the fighting in Iraq is that of Americans moving west and overwhelming the native populations. There were skermishes. The native population simply did not have the logistics to stand against the tide. The killing and destruction going on in Iraq is at a low level in quite small areas of Iraq. It is deadly and tragic, but has little bearing upon the evolution of freedom in Iraq. The information genie is out of the bottle. And bottle of costs shrinks every day. South Vietnam lost as America logistically abandoned them. Iraq has it's own internal natural resources that meet well those of their local national enemies. But the information genie is out of the bottle. That force may be the ultimate force of evolution.
