Crimson > This doesn’t just mean that the US loses in Iraq. It means its leverage elsewhere is severely diminished as well. But very few people in Washington seem to understand that yet. As I have said before, Israel is quite happy to fight to the last American -- and why not? Zionists care nothing for anyone but themselves. They are, after all, the "chosen people" -- chosen by Theodor Hertzl to colonize the Mid East -- and at any price, providing they are not paying.

Kissinger says Iraq isn't ripe for democracy latimes.com Former Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger, a frequent advisor to President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney, has concluded that the United States must choose between stability and democracy in Iraq — and that democracy, for now, is out of reach. "I think that's reality. I think that was true from the beginning," Kissinger said in an interview last week. "Iraq is not a nation in the historic sense," he said, pointing to the ferocity of the conflicts among Kurds and Sunni and Shiite Arabs. "The evolution of democracy … usually has to go through a phase in which a nation [is] born. And by attempting to skip that process, our valid goals were distorted into what we are now seeing."
