Paul Bremer and other extremists said otherwise last week. Bremer said we should spend maybe another ten years solving this problem. Deja Vue Nam. He was reciting the Domino theory without describing it by name. Either we stop them there or we must stop them here.
Bremer, who massacred many of the 5000 American soldiers (on direct orders from Rumsfeld), has no problem massacring another 5000 for no useful purpose. You would think he learned why his CPA order #1 and CPA order #2 violating the most basic military principles defined 2500 years ago. Nope. He still says that was correct. He blames others for a resulting insurgency.
Bremer publically denies his ignorance because he is not a moderate; because he is an extremist. Same types also created Nam.
The original mistake was defined here over a decade ago:
Exit Strategy. And here in 2003

... only when honest facts -the smoking gun - first exist. The WTC was a smoking gun. Milosevik was a smoking gun. Peral Harbor was a smoking gun. There was no smoking gun for Iraq. We now know the administration also knew that - but lied anyway. That is how an administration abuses military personal - just like in VietNam. ... Its about honesty - such as the aluminum tubes. A lie that will not stay buried. A lie that demonstrates why "we are stuck" in Iraq - a direct quote from General Zinni.

Deja vue Nam - if we listen again to wacko extremists who also said, "Reagan proved that deficits don't matter." And who cannot account for $billions - pallets of $100 bills - shipped to Iraq.
