I saw the documentary Baghdad ER last night. Worth watching. Anyways, the movie shows how desperate the situation is in Iraq. Everyday people arrive in the ER injured from a car bomb. They all say the same thing, they can't believe Iraqis are doing this to each other. And they all agree that the situation would become much worse were America to pull out. But I put this to you Peter. It was Bush and Rumsfeld's mismanagement of the invasion and the aftermath that led to this mess. You invade, take control the country, and don't let it fall into mayhem... Sorry Peter, I don't mean to emasculate the USA, only the war planners. They've screwed up, and frankly, it appears no one has a solution. I'm hoping the boost in troop numbers will improve the situation. But it is this administration's fault that the situation has become as dire as it is.... Bush Jr. and the people he's been taking sdvise from clearly did not understand what they were getting into... Powell warned Bush more than once, "Don't invade Iraq unless you want to own it."
