Why Is The Head of the British Army Recommending Getting The Hell Out of Iraq?
Doug at All Things Democrat tells us.
Mind you, I'm torn. What we did to Iraq we should have done to no one. We have actually managed to make the country worse than it was during Saddam Hussein's tenure.
This is not the fault of the military; no, they did what Donald Rumsfeld told them to do. So they're left to do what they can while the Iraqi soldiers are delivering school supplies (from today's CentCom release) to schools that were fully equipped and functioning before the Bushies decided to invade. See below:
- Iraqi security forces have been taking on the challenge of their own security. Perhaps equally important is the future and wellbeing of the children of Iraq.
Iraqi security forces take a break from hunting insurgents and enforcing the law to help Iraqi school children.
I feel we owe Iraq more than we can ever possibly give to make up for what we took (hundreds of thousands of precious lives, just to name one example). But what is best? So-called "Cut and Run" (which is what the Bushies will do eventually and which is wrong) or stay there forever letting Halliburton and Bechtel profit for non-deliverance?
