Do you ever admit failure or do you just continue attempting to succeed in the face of set back after set back after set back without adjusting your strategy?
I was led to believe (although I never did) that we would be "welcomed as liberators". If that is not the statement of a belief that setting up a secular democracy in Iraq would be cake, I don't know what is.
Should I give you 10 years to fight in Iraq and establish democracy? How about 50 years?
How about if you prove it can work before you go around suggesting it be tried in other countries?
I want proof of concept. So far, the original PNAC concept has failed - there is no question of that. I have seen little to no adjustment in the PNAC strategy to deal with that failure. So why am I to believe that success is inevitable?
