Iraq will never be a democracy in our lifetimes. Turkey cannot even manage one ,and they are the most progressive people in the middle east.

You have a problem with this? One cannot allow others to incite insurection when one is trying to build a democracy. Frankly, I think the entire effort is doomed. Let them follow their Mullah's to their collective graves.

As much as one would prefer it not to be, this is a war between us and radical Islam. It will be a war to the death of one side or the other. I would prefer it to be their side that fails.

Err, while i'm all for free speech, there is no room for lying in a newspaper in this current time full of strife.

BTW, you can't lie in american papers too...

Sure you can, but if you do the forces that arrive will be lawyers, not soldiers.
