This my first posting. Future postings will include references, quotes, pictures and videos. Please be patient while I familiarize myself with this medium.
Is it enough to have a strategy for entering a war, or should we also have a strategy for what to do when the war ends. Mr. Bush stood on an aircraft carrier and announced 'Mission Accomplished'. So if the war was won what was his strategy for post-war Iraq? But, obviously the President has no memory of history. If he even knew where Viet Nam is or what the significance of our experience in that country was, he shows no inclination.
Did he think we would just topple Saddam Hussein, his sectarian government and hundreds of years of history of the Baath Party, insert an U.S. type of democracy, steal their oil, dust off our hands and walk out... 'Mission Accomplished'.
We reap what we sow. What next.
