The evolution of Iraq political thought

First there came the 911 attacks.

Then there came the need for national revenge; and also national fear of the unknown future.

Then there came the recognition of an Islamic fascist cultural/religious attack on the West and the USA.

Then there came the USA (and its coalition) attack into Iraq, and Afghanistan (to include NATO).

Then there came the UN and European and Democratic Party political attacks on the President.

Then there came the analogies to the late 1930’s responses to Nazi fascism.

Then there came a 2005 National Democratic Party change in strategy to become obstructionists to the Republican Party and its President.

Then winning the peace in Iraq, was being replaced by the media with reporting losing the peace.

Then Iraq did go to hell, and we were losing the peace in some of Iraq, mostly in the capital and Anbar province.

Then our President admitted mistakes as he changed how he will try win the peace.

In all of this everyone is an arm chair general and secretary of state and librarian of congress in deciding the past, and divining our future.
