Reminds me of the 1000 Secret Rumsfeld Kung Fu technique. He shows up, take some names, and kicks ass.
International cooperation in the war against “Talebinistan” seemed to be a moral imperative after 9-11. Bush’s un-provoked, unnecessary, largely unilateral invasion and unplanned occupation of Iraq (UULUIUOI)has drained off military assets, financial resources, and international consensus that would/could/should have clinched the deal. Now, I think, the UULUIUOI is eroding and corrupting the will and determination of the American people.
Tragedy is the familiar but unwelcome companion to history.
