and Cheney said that the improvement was phenomenal...
damn. time to get the hell out. way past time.
It's possible that Petraeus has been played for a sucker by al-Sadr. The cease-fire bought time, although the constant raids and arrests rankled.
Yeah, I think the US is going to get a really nasty lesson on just how much of Iraq is "out of control."
Aside from the Sunni and Shia militias, just who makes up the supposed 'Iraqi Army'?
I see meltdown coming.
It seems to me the U.S. are trying to cause a civil war
Sadr's been the defacto head of what ever might pass for a country there since before the purple fucking finger farce.
gilly saw that and wrote about it. i think sadr was biding his time, conserving his forces and consolidating his control believing, and reasonably so, that when the inevitable US bug out takes place that he would be the best thing to fill that vacuum nature so abhors.
now, with the bug out not on the table in the see able future, and with the two months of solid provocations by US and their quisling iraqi forces nipping at his and assaulting his senior leadership while at the same time taking territory he's decided that it's time to take the gloves off and get to bopping.
cease fires are supposed to work both ways. it's a i leave you alone, you leave me alone. but then, american policy has always been to fucking stupid to see the sense of that.
if this was a scorsese movie pink floyd would be playing in the background, the blood bath is about to happen.
mullah cimoc say ameriki so the stupid for usa media to keep him so brainwash.
this kill all for neocon spies in white house and pentagon. also usa to being so punish for the cruel. him woman now slut take LBT (low back tattoo) and sex with every man even gang member. this the ashame.
but ameriki so slave of master in tel aviv. usa media so control.
no wmd, just the lie. no 911 linking, just the lie. no yellow cake, just the lie. someday ameriki to wake up and take back own country. maybe to late. maybe ameriki lose him country and fight with aztec for him scrap.
google: +"mighty wurlitzer" +cia
now that everyone's all hyped up too, how long do you think before we see another blackwater or haditha type incident?
This bed has been beshit and there are no good answers left. That time is long past.
There isn't even a shitty answer... lots of people are going to die, lots will be wounded. No one is going to win anything. Even the victors will rue their fate. This war reminds me of Goya's painting "Fight with Cudgels," just another blood mess between us hairless apes fighting for nothing.
We needed to be out of there last year or five years ago or never gone in. No good answers are left.
I think Bush just told Maliki that he has a blank check from now to when Bush/Cheney bomb Iran. This basically means that Maliki has to consolidate control over areas where he has none before Bomb Day in Iran. It's an untenable situation especially as Maliki, SIIC, and Dawa in Iraq ARE the Iranian surrogate in Iraq but whatever.
The corporate media will just sell the same old shit during the next propaganda campaign. The only consolation is that to my knowledge NONE of the Democratic Presidential candidate ever bought into the Surge bullshit. And that includes Senator Clinton.
At least on this issue there is a definite difference between McCain and both Democratic candidates. McCain both bought into and pushed the bullshit, especially during the last "let's bomb Iran!" tour of Iraq.
I can't help but think this is the U.S. promoting a Iraqi civil war.
Hubris,
That was the plan from the beginning and they're still trying to bring Iran in.
