I hear you loud and clear, pac-man. It's not a pretty picture right now, by any stretch of the imagination.
For a moment, though, try to picture in your mind - create a sheer fantasy in your mind - that things turn out for the better, that Something Good comes of all this. ANYTHING was better than the way it was, for everyone involved, no? At this point in time, the Dialogue of Doom holds no interest for me anymore. One can bitch and whine about the bad things in Iraq until Kingdom Come, how simple is that? I can dredge up in my own mind the darkest, most miserable scenarios for Iraq, as I'm sure you can. Easiest thing in the world, right?
So. In the meantime, it doesn't hurt to shine some light on the positive in Iraq.
