He may have been, but he lost that battle and military route was chosen, and once it was chosen sadly his advice led to us having to go back again, instead of getting the job done the first time.
1991 Saddam should have been removed, not only this, but US allowing IRAQ to use helicopters after surrender, lead to the gassing of countless curds after the fact.
I honestly am not, at a gut level, happy that it looks like the US may be abandoning the Kurds again in Syria... but I admit I have not followed this conflict closely either, so my gut reaction may not be an honest assessment of the situation.
Oh goody! That way we could have been in the Iraq mess since 1991 instead of since 2003...
Warmongering “regime changers” need to be destroyed politically. We can’t afford any more of the wars these lunatics want us to fight.
