i think they're in a big creek with a small paddle, and its more likely to get worse than better for the mid-term. Latest news to confirm such a view is a pentagon-commissioned report released last week warning that if the forces don't make significant progress in Iraq soon, the entire endeavour will fail. Wolfowitz admitted last week that the dropped the ball on preserving civil order after the collapse of the old regime.Originally posted by JPaul@21 July 2003 - 14:39
What do you think of the Bush / UK Intelligence situation.
as i've said many times on the subject, the whole adventure was tainted with wilfull blindness, no seasoned intelligence officer could possibly have been fooled by the Niger documents. Its the difference between analyzing the data, then making a decision on how to act, versus the current situation where the decision was made regardless of the data, then plundered for whatever information would justify the decision.
Last week, i read the first headline speculating that Shrub will be a one-termer. I think thats less likely than more to happen....but then again, last week, i read the first headline speculating that Shrub will be a one-termer.
