The reason we cannot win a war in Iraq is that the people there, fellow countrymen, can not even get along. They are sliced into religious sects with independent ideas about how THEY want to run the country. And being zealots they don't wish to share power, they want to rule THEIR country. Whereas here, in the USA we have a tolerance for varying religions. I'm a Christian, but when I watch Big Brother 7 I root for Kaysar, an admitted Muslim, because I like him and his personality. I could give a crap that he is a Muslim. I also like Macellas who is both black and gay, and I am neither, but I think he's a funny guy. But I greaw up in a society where everybody is as close to equal as it seems to get on this planet.
Yet our friends in Iraq are the ones that were educated in the west, and want some prosperity, but those who deem to fight the future are those who have never known freedom to think for themselves and thrive on hatred fed to them by their religious leaders. Responses please.
