John Warner, after returning from Iraq, last week, has called for a change of course, in Iraq, unless the level of violence decreases in the next few months, and states, that he takes nothing off the table. I took that to mean, re-deployment.
Briefly, I considered posting praise for the first Republican to stand up for our troops. I knew, I was risking the health of my fellow posters, seeing in my mind's eye, many of you dropping to the floor with heart attacks, so I decided to give it further thought, lol.
There is no indication that the violence will subside, and in fact, our own NSE, (16 Agencies) suggests that it will continue to rise. If you've see Bob Woodward's copy of the Top Secret Chart on violence, and the accompanying film clips, of what we were being told at various high points on the hockey stick graph, it's pretty clear, we've been lied to all along, and initially.
Does Warner suggest, that we leave our troops to continue to be slaughtered, for the next few months, until after the election, before he advises to embrace the Democrats plan to re-deploy, in order to let the Iraqis slaughter one another, until they can join their warring factions in an effort to embrace the opportunity our troops are literally dying to give them?
Before the right begins their slaughter on me, lol, please read Dag's last post here. Although he is in Afghanistan, Iraq is as bad, if not worse.
I find it interesting to note, the titles of the books, alone, which are being written, are of the same general theme, of unrealistic, untruthful, self-serving, incompetent, policy. "Without Conscience" "Hubris" "State Of Denial" "Broken Branch" "Diplomatic Lessons; Realism For an Unloved Super Power" "Fiasco" that is just a very few, of the same theme. Need I say more? All the corruption we are learning about, isn't the pressing issue to me, as long as our kids are being slaughtered, for the sake of people, the majority of whom, would as soon slaughter all of us.
We seem to be doing all the things that are making everything worse, According to the NSE, emboldening the terrorist's cause, and increasing their numbers, with the threat, that if we don't continue on the same unsuccessful, unrealistic path, (which has been deemed by our military as militarily unwinnable) terrorists will be emboldened. Does this sound to anyone like we have been led down a no win path? If so, then I ask, who were the leaders? A better question might be, whom do you wish to vote for?
