Yep. Maybe all the "Run away from Iraq" types might want to take a look at the Mid East and see just how we are now positioned to now deal with both Syria and Iran. History is going to be very very kind to GW Bush, at least on International Relations. Liberating Iraq in 2002 is looking smarter and smarter every day.
“History is going to be very very kind to GW Bush,....”
I hope you are right, but remember, it is mostly liberals who write the history and teach it....(sigh)
Hopefully, the American people will wake up and realize how dangerous the world is truly becoming. I would not be surprised if some of Syria’s ‘materials’ came from Iraq before the war!
I agree with you 100%. I’m tired of hearing the whining and defeatism about Iraq. What the cut and run crowd doesn’t realize is that just because you encounter difficulties in the middle of an effort doesn’t mean starting the effort was a mistake in the first place. Like a necessary surgery, once you start you can’t just walk away because something unexpected or difficult comes up. If you do the patient will die. You have to complete the surgery. We must stick it out in Iraq and use it as a foothold in a region that threatens the well-being of the world.
I always thought one of the unspoken reasons for going into Iraq was the positioning in the Middle East.
