At one time Saddam was one and he didn't have any WMD's so it seems that the US is kinda going in circles here while people are dying by the million. But maybe that's the point, eh?

Oh no, I think the whole Afghanistan - situation has been a terrible tragedy and the 'media blackout' concerning bad news about civilian casualties etc. from that theather of war only makes me more worried that sheet is hitting the fan there in a major way. The fact that the UN has been called as the mess-cleaners and are now taking casualties is another example of a failure by the US-led coalition.
Yeah, whatever OTH. I've listened to people with your point of view for years. And it's only the same crap over and over again. Tell all the above to your pillow tonight. Because I stopped listening to you types long ago. Your comments are merely the same broken record which doesn't even address the successes we've seen. Yours is merely the view being fed to you by a media that wants the disastrous results you seek. You are merely a person who craves failure and defeat. But yes, Iraq is now a functioning government. The country is being rebuilt. They have revenue incoming. The insurgencies there have failed. The US military and allies have been successful. You and yours have been a failure at selling the idea of "failure". It's why you don't hear the Democrats talk about it as an issue. They can't because they sounded just like you before the end of last year.

And you're blind if you want a nice, clean, easy war with no casualties. It ain't ever going to happen. You're trying to drive opinion based on these weak links of yours. As if they tell the entire story? And as if they're not driven to create a story? I would tell you where you can go, but you're already there.
