This post pretty much reflects my own views of what's really going on. I believe this is nothing less than an attempt to use a democratic Iraq as a catalyst to transform the mindset of the entire Arab world, or at least that portion of the Arab world that isn't utterly insane. It is an extremely bold and historical move on Bush's part. My opinion is that Bush wants these Middle Eastern problems SOLVED, and he's fed up with the "peace process" and "inspections" charades that go on and on and on with no end in sight. And the irony is, if he succeeds, there is probably no way he would ever get the Nobel Peace Prize, which is reserved for failures like Jimmy Carter and thugs like Yasser Arafat.

We are going to show them what we are all about. Why America is the greatest country in the world. We are going to open their eyes to the beauty of freedom.
