whatever you say about saddam...there weren't car bombs on a daily basis. as fucked up as it is...that's probably a pretty relevant standard that we're being judged by. Not having enough troops to do the job right is killing us, and them... Why as a nation, we ever thought that occupiying a middle eastern country could be done on the quick, on the cheap, and on the easy... It blows the mind. Our invasion has brought the end to a terrible regime. Our invasion has also brought the beginning of a period of chaos. Sucks...but if all we can offer is a well intentioned sewer system, with strewn body parts in it...then we're probably losing support among the people.
