IRAQ REVISITED

It is now quite apparent and History will show, that the neo-conservative group's plan to bring about a new world order was adopted by President Bush years ago. What this means is that the attack on Iraq was part of this plan and all Bush had to do was invent reasons to justify the attack and he did. The recent "British Memo" basically confirms what many knew all along.

Was lying to the nation and sacrificing American and European lives justified. It is if you look at the BIG picture.

The Middle East was and is getting out of control. Religious terrorists want to change the world according to their plans. This entails making the Middle East a militant theocracy which will, eventually, destroy the godless West.

The neo-conservative group believes that to thwart the terrorist's plan, they have to remake the Middle East into something similar to the West; a democratic, progressive society.

To do that, they need to introduce democracy into the Middle East. Saddam and Iraq gave them the perfect opportunity and so they took it.

Was the war on Iraq inevitable? Many will argue that it would have happened sooner or later. Many point to positives that have already occurred because of the war. Look at Libya which now wants to be buddy-buddy because Bush scared the shit out of them. How about Lebanon and the expulsion of Syrian forces. Egypt is moving, ever so slightly, in the direction of an eventual democracy. Iran is holding elections that will probably put it closer to the West. Did our attack of Iraq speed up the process to democratization? I think you cannot ignore the impact it has had and will continue to have on the thinking of people in the Middle east.

Can we win in Iraq? I don't think so. The country was artificially created by the British. The Kurds, Shiites and Sunnis were not meant to live in the same country. Only a dictator could accomplish that as Saddam did. Look what happened to Yugoslavia when Tito died - it split up along ethnic lines.

Should we create three (3) separate countries? That would be hard and impractical to do. One radical idea is to finally create a KURDISTAN. These people have been around since the beginning of time and have never had a country of their own. With a new Kurd country in existence, the parts of Iraq occupied by the Sunnis and the Shiites should be split and attached to IRAN and JORDAN along religious lines.

Hey, I know it is radical but the way things look now, we will continue to lose American lives and billions of dollars on a daily basis ad infinitum - so think radical.
