http://www.imao.us/archives/000552.html#000552Some Thoughts on the War That's Not Quite Over
Getting liberated looks like fun. You get to knock down statues and loot like crazy and it's all cool!
Anyway, I thought it was interesting to see the mood of people during this war:
Wow! With the decapitation attack and Shock and Awe, everyone is going to surrender right away and this war will be over quick!
Oh no! They're actually fighting back! We have casualties and P.O.W.'s! This war will last forever and tons of our troops will be killed! Quagmire! Quagmire! Quagmire! Quag...
Wait a sec; war's over. Hooray!
Now that the Iraqis are cheering us - JUST LIKE WE SAID - all we need is to find some WMD's and then we'll prove we're totally right about everything and can be like, "That's why we don't listen to other countries: because we're right about everything and you're all turds." Let's then use the WMD's on France and Germany and say, "Since you said Iraq didn't have WMD's, these can't be WMD's we're using on you now and you can't get mad." But they probably will get mad. Hypocrites.
