What will happen next? America will not fold its tents and silently steal away, and those who expect a few photographs from Abu Ghraib to undermine America's resolve underestimate American stubbornness. An open repudiation of past errors is most unlikely during an American presidential election year, but some adjustment is inevitable.

Ultimately, I expect failure to establish order in Iraq will lead Washington to jettison the goal of Iraqi democracy, as George Will suggests in the May 4 Washington Post. It is likely to embrace the next best thing, namely Iraqi chaos

W's propagandists have been pushing the "future's so bright" line for quite some time, and fairandbalanced Fox News & Co. have been eating it up.

Well, it sure hasn't been getting nearly as much press as those propagandists asserting the "future's so dismal" and "we're so evil" line of reasoning..

The truth, as always, lies somewhere in the middle.
