Neo cons jumping ship ..... Francis Fukuyama the PNAC Architect
But they have left a paper trail ...... just like the nazis did.


"As we approach the third anniversary of the onset of the Iraq war, it seems very unlikely that history will judge either the intervention itself or the ideas animating it kindly. By invading Iraq, the Bush administration created a self-fulfilling prophecy: Iraq has now replaced Afghanistan as a magnet, a training ground and an operational base for jihadist terrorists, with plenty of American targets to shoot at. The United States still has a chance of creating a Shi'ite-dominated democratic Iraq, but the new government will be very weak for years to come; the resulting power vacuum will invite outside influence from all of Iraq's neighbors, including Iran. There are clear benefits to the Iraqi people from the removal of Saddam Hussein's dictatorship, and perhaps some positive spillover effects in Lebanon and Syria. But it is very hard to see how these developments in themselves justify the blood and treasure that the United States has spent on the project to this point." F. Fukuyama Feb 2006

1. F. U. FUkuyama!!!
You wanted this, you got it. You wanted it so much that you and your hegemonic fascists isolated "Iraq" on you global PNAC map. That's right! Your label for the mid-east wasn't simply "Middle East" but rather "Iraq/Middle East," so shut the f*ck up and take responsibility for what you did.

I hope you and your ilk are tried for war crimes and left to rot in a prison cell in a country not of your own choosing! :grr:

4. A war that can not be won.

If all violence in Iraq came to an immediate halt, if everyone in Iraq came together to form a liberal democracy that each and every single individual in Iraq loved, and if the US military stayed there ten more years waiting for it to blow up then finally left after deciding the war was over ... then our enemies would still celebrate that moment as a great day of victory when they kicked out the infidels. And a new generation would claim, "we told you we would outlast them".

In Vietnam victory was at least theoretically achievable. The communists had to establish a communist regime in South Vietnam to claim victory. In Iraq all they have to do is wait for us to leave, then our enemies win by default.

A stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid f---ing war.
