<<the US is sticking its neck out supporting the forces of modernity against the forces of antiquity, democracy against autocracy and dictatorship, but it's the right thing to do>>

... what rot.

The US, together with British lacky, by intervention without thought, and action without capability, have together enabled and then set off sectarian cleansing all over what used to be certainly sovereign and more controlled Iraq, replacing the bad but single Saddam with the horrible and many Saddam-wanna-be's, by most measures (and if not, we just have to wait for the body count to build up over inevitable passing of elapsed time).

And now, after accomplishing less than nothing, both the empire and the ex-empire wishes to turn tail, seeking excuses by electoral demand, so that another job gets not done and left botched.

Nice going. Where shall be experimented on next? Only to botch and be handed over to yet more scum, and then blamed it all on somebody else; but only after first taking proud credit for mission accomplished.

Now, either the above read is correct, or the mission was in fact accomplished - which then leads to the natural question, 'what was the mission?'

... police were planning to execute their prisoners.

... there was evidence of torture.

... Iraqi officers ... leading a death squad at the unit.
