After we leave ...
Several here (you know who you are) have slipped in the point that there will be a dog gone blood bath in Baghdad if the Americans leave right now. I see not proof of that, but I will stipulate that for the moment for argument's sake.
My response is so? If there is to be a blood bath, if will happen and killing a million more Iraqi innocents will not lesson our collective guilt for destroying the country. Perhaps the groups over there will come to terms much faster than we fool westerners can imagine; after all, they have lived together in that region for a long, long time and the people might be able to 'move on' after the invader is put out.
However, the fact is that it is their fate. It is for them to run their own lives, we are not doing so well here that we should go abroad and tell others how to live. (with bombs and bullets)
