Yes, the US made it worse because the arabs didnt step up. Thats exactly what i said to hawk. We failed to take into account the civil divisions between sunni and shiaa etc that exploded post saddam. But most of that explosion was caused by jihadis, baathists, criminals, thugs and iranian operatives and shia militias. See where i am going with this---neocons had a more optimistic view of arabs than warranted. Remember those ladies with blue ink voting--what a damn shame it didnt work and i blame buah and rummy for poor admin but was it inevitable? Are the anti war folks right? Probably yes because of folks like you who root for the terrorists, baathists, militias et al so you can stick a thumb in uncle sams eye. Well you reap what you sow---same for you as it is for bush--now you have a new movie to watch Gaza Strip 2.
