If we had to keep them anywhere, Iraq would have been preferable to the "Graveyard of Empires".

Personally, I don't blame Shrub or Obama. The die was cast years before them, and both had limited choices...all of which were bad.

The American population deludes themselves with the misconception that both the POTUS and the military have powers so great as to control the nature of world affairs.

That is not the case.
