It's a Good Thing That War is Over

It's a good thing that war is over. I mean, how many people have to die for dog's sake! (I stole that from someone, but I LOVE it.)

When will the powerful elite of Washington recognize that instituting a secular "democracy" in Iraq is not going to work? They are country that has wanted and seeks the guidance of a spirtual leader. Granted, Hussein preferred a more secular role in his Sunni faith and overall leadership, but the majority of the damn country is Shi'ite anyway, and they most certainly want a religious leader (ayatollah-like that of Iran)

It would be like someone invading the U.S. and saying, "Hey everyone, you don't want this crazy fanatical freak running your country. You'll thank me when I install this Other Guy who will install a secular democracy." Interesting how easily that works both ways these days, isn't it?
