Iraq wasn’t a prison.

It was. And it still is. Only now, the guards have lost control.

The current situation in Iraq should serve as a reminder as to why going to war should always be the absolute last and final option after everything else has been tried. George W. Bush was aching to go to war and there wasn’t a damn thing anyone could have done to talk him out of it. Therefore, he most certainly deserves the lion’s share of the blame for the current anarchy which exists in Iraq. I would like to think that his appearance at Arlington yesterday ate at his conscience, but I doubt it.

I’d like to think that he feels a twinge of SOMETHING when he sees stories of fallen soldiers that no longer believe in the Prime Directive or sorrow for some of the pain caused.
I get the sick feeling that it’s not a negative twinge..that it’s a positive twinge..or worse yet, no twinge at all..just “business as usual”.
