Iraq'd

Nothing will ever get the war loving commentariat or even most people to care much, but as we consider what incompetent maleveolent "leadership" can do to a country (ours), remember that the Bush administration did it to Iraq with 5 years+ of unwavering support from all of our elite Thinkfluencers. Worse, of course, but similar in many ways.

They sent the idiot 23-year-old conservatives who were too useless to make it in the conservative movement at home to destroy Iraq, and that same basic set of people (the next generation) is destroying America.

And everyone is busy helping these assholes rehabilitate themselves.

US-UK intervention offered Iraq a better future. Whatever West's mistakes: sectarian war was a choice Iraqis made for themselves.
