You think we’ve accomplished anything useful since Bush left office? Just about everything Obama has done is to help the wrong side, including the illegal war in Libya.
It’s very doubtful that we are doing anything helpful in Afghanistan any more. The Rules of Engagement are killing our troops, almost entirely to no purpose.
And do you think things are better in Iraq?
“You think we’ve accomplished anything useful since Bush left office? Just about everything Obama has done is to help the wrong side, including the illegal war in Libya.”
I agree fully.
But you wrote, “The 2003 invasion may well have been justified. But ever since it has been going steadily south, as we lost all vision and purpose” which made it seemed like you were saying it went bad beginning in 2003 — ie from the very start.
I also did not understand this: “War for the sake of war? And mostly being fought on the wrong side? I don’t think so. That’s McManiac’s dream.”
But this response from you makes me think we are in agreement.
