What is the exit strategy? we won't exit or we will bomb iraq to smithereens or we will leave an acceptable government in place and support it or come back and liberate iraq again.
How long will it take? we will act this month. we will be clear winner by november election. we will have most troops out in a few yers.
How many more lives lost? unknown- but in the end more than 1,000 times as many muslims will be killed as americans. muslims may give up fight before a billion muslims are killed.
What Will be the cost? at some point we will stop using laser guided bombs. i don't know how or if you are right about our making money on oil.
What will be the outcome? iraq and arabs and muslims will be conquered. u s will survive. muslims will snuff out terrorists rather than face consequences of annihilation by u s- or they will be annihilated. kofi won't exert meaningful power over w. millenia from now - people will say americans killed indians and hundreds of years later muslims. neither george washington or george w will have chosen to be a king.

B.G. Burkett: Navy Commanders to Cast Doubt on Kerry's War Record

Several Navy officers who supervised Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry when he commanded a swift boat in Vietnam are preparing to publicly question his war record - including the circumstances under which he was awarded three Purple Hearts - a noted Vietnam War historian revealed on Sunday.

Burkett, whose 1999 book, "Stolen Valor," is considered to be the definitive history of of falsified Vietnam War claims, told WABC Radio's Steve Malzberg that Kerry's former commanders would allege that the top Democrat's Purple Hearts were awarded for "self-reported injuries that were virtually nonexistent."

"He never got a day of treatment, he never spent a day in a medical facility," Burkett said. "These were all self-reported wounds, which you're going to hear from some swift boat guys in the future as to the nature of those wounds."

Burkett said he had personally spoken to the Navy commanders who were preparing to go public about Kerry's decorations.

"You're going to get quite a showing [of those speaking out]," Burkett told Malzberg. "I don't know [the number] yet. They're trying to get it to be unanimous of every swift boat guy who ever served."

As to the timetable for the upcoming revelations, Burkett said that Kerry's superior officers "were still discussing that."

"You've got some major rallys being planned against John Kerry by Vietnam veterans on the mall, at the convention - this type of thing," he said. "And we're going to make America aware of John Kerry's military record."
