A new type of crime
This is great writing, great insight. If there were a deeper level of deleted text, it would reveal that the invasion and occupation was doomed to failure the instant it was dreamed up.
When a course of action is conceived with criminal intent, it has no chance whatsoever of transforming into a noble endeavor. Illusion, delusion, deception, destruction, obfuscation, obliteration, corruption, futility and eventually eviction are all the nature and result of such an effort.
The only real question about "Iraq" is twofold, or, there are two questions: Will the country be completely destroyed, an effective genocide and Chernobylization? And will Bush and his cronies succeed in stealing the oil of "Iraq?" All else is chatter. There are no good intentions here. The only good result will be the incarceration for life of Bush and his co-conspirators in this heinous world crime (a new term I just invented).
