But the necessary limitations placed on our objectives, the fog of war, and the lack of "battleship Missouri" surrender unfortunately left unresolved problems, and new ones arose. Nope. Bush Senior's plan was perfect. The Kurds later fought a pitched battle and would have defeated Iraq, were it not for one thing: Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton failed to give them critical air support at a critical moment. Bill Clinton most likely dropped the ball with the Kurds in other ways as well.

I hate to even come close to agreeing with liberallarry on anything, but what about Bush allowing Hussein to use his helicopter gunships to put down the Shiite upraising in the South. If I am not mistaken, I thought the same thing also happened in the North.
