    ...civil evolution in Iraq. Friedman's past blunders, while notable, do not negate the fact that something positive occasionally happens there.

    You're attempting to put a positive spin on armed robbery, mass murder, and the systematic brutalization of whole peoples into submission to make it easier to rob and exploit them.
