The US won't "win"

Really? Where is Saddam? Where are the Sunni thugs who ruled that
country with an iron fist? Who makes up the new Iraqi government
and what are their goals? How many newspapers are now being
published in Baghdad free of censorship? How many women make up that
new governing council? How many young girls are for the first time
going to school in Iraq? How is it that Iraq now has more social
infrastructure in place than it ever did under Saddam? I understand
you're mad. Rabid dogs get mad. What I don't understand is your
ignorance and your willingness to spread it all over the world via
the usenet.


My my, so this is your definition of winning. OK so the US finally got
****ed off at Saddam AFTER supporting him and giving him all those
WMDs to fight those dastardly Ayatollas ... Why did you let him go on
for so long?

Ask Bill Clinton.

and will hand over the stinking mess they started (with their
invasion) for someone else to deal with while at the same time
extolling their mattra "WE won the war!! WE won the war!! What
revisionistic bull****.

Your superpower does not have the ability to create peace, just to
"win" by killing all opposition and flattening the country. Kinda
like the German Panzer division did when they opened up on the
Polish Calvary at the beginning of WW II. Even though they overran
Poland they had nothing but trouble for the rest of the "war". Then
the Germans were defeated. The US won't win the peace offensive
because they do NOT have the capability. If they did have that
capability why do they pass off the destroyed countryside to someone
else AND ask them to get involved in the peace process.

You need to look more closely at WW2 history. The two countries who
were the chief architects of WW2 - Germany and Japan were both
leveled by the United States and both rebuilt via the Marshal Plan
into first world countries by the same United States of America.

Oh, the USA won the war! More revisionist bull****. Why were RCAF,
RAF, RAAF and RNZAF aircrews bombing the AXIS powers? For practice?
Why are there thousands of British, Canadian, French, Australian, New
Zealand and other ALLIED soldiers buried all over this earth adjactent
to or near the cemetaries of AXIS warriors?

They weren't accomplishing much until the Americans arrived.

Surely you must mean the Soviets? Who al;most singlehanded defeated
the Nazis, while the US were more or less tied in the Pacific?

Who do you think was supplying the Soviets? The Americans of course. We
were supplying their war machine as well as fighting a two front war.

The Soviets would have been overrun if it wasn't for American assistance
and intervention in the European theater.

So? The Soviets almoat singlehandedluy defeated the Nazis. With some
American hardware, so what?
