“I’ve always thought Colin Powell a good and decent man. That he left the Bush Administration (was “invited” to leave, actually) because he disagreed with Bush on the handling of the Iraq war was unfortunate, but the man stood his ground. He might see it necessary to get back into the political arena if it means for the good of his country.”

I think it was Powell who told Bush re: Iraq...”you break it, you own it”.

Right. And wise counsel it was. In other words - no withdrawal until the job is done.
