Ann, there WASN'T any "Al Queada in Iraq" when we first went in there. This Administration's BLUNDERS gave Al Queada the "opening" and support to go in there. We went in with too few troops, we disbanded the Iraqi army, we kicked all the Baathists (the only people that knew how to run things) out of their jobs. We also gave them "recruiting posters" (Abu Ghraib?). What we're gonna end up with is an Iraq run by Shiites that have more in common with and LIKE the Iranians more than us. The "current" guy running things there (Maliki), seems O.K., but what happens after we pull out and politics runs its course over a few years?
