For an example, someone leaves water lying in the middle of the floor and someone else comes along and slips and breaks an arm. I see the person leaving the water on the floor as partly responsible. You probably do not. That's not a good metaphor for what's happening in Iraq. Iraqis are intentionally killing each other, not accidentally dying due to something Bush left lying around. A closer example is be if someone leaves a knife lying around a kitchen, and two people enter the kitchen, and one grabs the knife and kills the other. I don't blame the person who left the knife lying around, I blame the killer. An even closer one.........you go into a city say like Los Angeles, and remove the police chief and disenfranchise the police officers and put in an authority that is inadequate to replace them. That's what Bush did in Iraq, and not surprisingly, the result was deadly chaos. However, whether we agree or not, the world view is that Bush is responsible and that there is a relationship between the Bush invasion and the current violence in Iraq. That's your world view Given the censorship that you claim to be under, its seems to me that you are in no position to make such determination.
