A.) I don't think America is bloodthirsty and I think what callpousness it has stems from the arrogance of it's leadership. I think we're hamfisted, proud, cocksure and a hots of oter things that make for bad foreign policy, and I think that about our current leadership in spades.

I think when we are represented by 'boots on the ground' were about as civilzed as warriors get, although that's daming with faint praise. I think when we set of daisy cutters from a distance, we're kind of like an ot of control toddler in the infant room.

We are without question icer by far than folks who use human remians as hood ornaments. Bully for our side.

I'm not suggesting that America cut and run in Iraq leaving no one behind. I stating that of all the major powers, be they nation states, coalitions, alliances or international organzations, we are the leaast able to carry out this job. You can't occupy and command a country that hates you and do anything productive. Should we provife soldiers and money to whoever r5uns the show? Absolutely. Should we command? Absolutely not. Any action we take is tainted in fact or perception.

W cannot hand over Iraq. First of all he won't. Second, no one would accept this mess from him. This has got to be in the top ten reasons why it's very, very important W. not be our next president. He will never admit the tragic mistakes he's made, and without such an admission, without the humility in foreign policy he spoke so much about when he raan, no one is going to take this mess off his bloody hands.
