About Iraq War
Mitchell, it quickly becomes a never-ending goal post-shuffling act of futility when the administration's scumbag talking heads get their pie-hole open. Now the "winning" mark is preventing Iran from having more influence than we have.
But the bottom line is that Iraq is NOT our country. It belongs to the Iraqis. If they choose friends that we don't particularly like, tough.

The Shah was the force that united Iranians against their government and the US. You reap what you sow - as the saying goes. At some point you should learn that meddling backfires, and backfires bad. It's time to back off.
In looking at our recent and past conduct in the world, it's wrong to allege that we are trying to be the "police" of the world - we're now the hypocritical, overbearing, controlling, abusive "parents" of the world.
