WTF did that have to do with iraq in 2003? Never mind...no need to reply with the usual crap about how iraq is the "central" blah blah blah...


It is amusing to me that in one breath you [collectively] claim that America's involvement in the ME is ineffectual and in the other breath you blame America for everything going on there.

We can argue about whether the effect is good or bad -- I say that Israel negotiating with Syria -- with preconditions -- is a good thing. That Syria is slow to come to the table isn't surprising.

I say that Iran being on notice that they are going to have to deal with a Democracy in Iraq -- which clearly they are responding to -- is a good thing.

Yes, it is ugly watching it happen -- but as with all major achievements, it is the trend that is important and nobody can dispute that the trend in Iraq right now is a positive one.

We still have bad days and even weeks, but the trend for the last year has been positive and that's what thinking people are looking for.
