"We don't have the kind of force that could really stand between the Turks and the Kurds," says a U.S. official.

Oh thanks for saying this and encouraging the Turks, whoever you were. That's all we need to ensure unity in post-war Iraq, a pitched Turk-Kurd brawl. </sarcasm>

"It is Bush who is the lone fighter," al-Ahmed said. "It is we who will achieve a great victory, and we are not dreaming." Maybe not.

This, after all, is Time. There had to be a nod to defeatism in there somewhere. The character of the claim "lone fighter" is itself ludicrous unless they have something up their sleeve to undermine the major coalition players (Britain, Australia) and even then we could still beat their pants off, it just would take longer. Sheriff Bush isn't there alone, he's got a posse.
