....what we broke?
So now Pelosi and Bush, all buddy buddy. Pelosi tells Bush; "You've got to make it loud & clear to the Iraqi people that their government has got to perform." She means they need better security. Maliki asked for better weapons. He claims he can bring about better security in '6 mos.' if US acquiesces. The request is not forrthcoming. Bush has better plan. We can't "get the job done" in 6 months, he muses. He steps in and promises 21,000 plus more soldiers. Also a U.S. General suggests using "mercenaries" already in Iraq now protecting the contractors(there are between 30,000 and 50,000 (depending on which source you believe) , while U.S. troops are left to protect themselves.
But tens of thousands of innocents have already died.
It's called "divide and conquer." We all learned that tactic while were in school. Sunni against Shiite, insurgents against factions, everyone against everyone else.
Let them destroy each other.
Isn't that the real plan?
