It's a fair request, seeing as how we funded Taylor's regime up until the end of the Cold War. We helped make the mess and we should damn well help clean it up. But that's just my .02.

Lonewolf, I don't mean to disparage you at all, as I have nothing but the utmost respect for the men and women in our armed services, but I have to ask - though your attitude toward politics seems fairly clear, why is it all right for the Bush Admininstration to fabricate evidence? Tony Blair is being rightfully, if sadly (as I have much respect for the work he has done) raked over the coals for the same actions by the House of Commons.

Personally, it disturbs me that the Administration would go to those lengths. It disturbs me because I wonder what war we're going to start or finish next because of a whim of Cheney/Rumsfeld/Wolfowitz and company. Any way you slice it, a war spells dead servicemen. And to have that be based on false pretenses is spitting on their bodies.

As for the outcome in Iraq, I can only give a skeptical 'we'll see.' I don't have enduring faith that things will not go right back down the toilet once the last U.S. Army soldier leaves Baghdad.
