We have completely forgotten that most iraqis blame us for the deaths of a half million of their children during the "sanctions". We refused to give them antibiotics and their children died in masses from diseases like disintary, cholera, etc. Not to mention the leukemia that many thousand of their children died from, blamed on our DU weapons.

There are few adults over 25 who don't have a family member or friend who lost a child due to our embargo of almost everything needed to be a healthy society. To think that our invasion force would be welcomed with open arms is insane. Further proof that the neocons are working in a different reality than the rest of the world.

This is going to get more and more violent as time goes on. And remember that it is almost impossible for a military force to defeat a guerilla force when the insurgents have at least the tacit backing of the population.

You have to wonder just where the hell the leaders of this country parked their brains. Don't they read history. I guess they don't remember viet nam because most of them were in thier ivory towers at the time. And of course they never volunteered for anything remotely dangerous. Oh, I forgot. Our Captain Courageous in the white house flew jets, didn't he? Yeah, he flew a plane that would never have been sent to nam. It was obsolete even before he joined.

This is going to get really bloody.
