why shouldn't people be pessimistic about the "mission in iraq"?
people are getting killed everyday.
soldiers are being killed everyday.
their cities were attacked and bombed.
Iraqis are not exactly jumping for joy at their "liberation"
and there certainly does not seem to be any big caches of WMD's to
be found, though it was promised time and time again, with 100%
certainty, both before and after the war.
it seems that PD was very right to be skeptical of the motivations
for going to Iraq. no one said "we need to bomb and invade Iraq because
Saddam Hussein is evil" - it was all about the "WMD's" that don't seem
to exist. I supported it because it seemed logical that there was
something to be found. seeing what happened, whats happening and
seeing the uncertainty ahead, i cant say that i would have made the same
decision if i knew then, what i know today.
