Deposing the government there was easy. There should have been a better plan for rebuilding..>
there was a plan for rebuilding?
It appears that planning reached exactly this far, and I quote President Bush verbatim:
"As far as destroying the oil wells were concerned, the U.S. was well equipped to repair them quickly, although this would be easier in the south of Iraq than in the north."
<President Bush, quoted from a memo recently leaked by an official in the Blair government, no doubt seized by an attack of conscience>
I am pleased to quote words by our President that display the candor that won him one (and arguably two) national elections in the United States.
As for the intent of the Untited States being good- perhaps, like Dr. Bob, we had best get out of the business of judging intent, and focus on the results.
