inept actions, these ill thought out decisions... they will answer, they are not the self appointed rulers of the world, and the world will have its say on this matter, you can take that to the bank. In the end, the graves we have created and are creating will outnumber what was there already.
Don't forget the graves we left there the last go around, when our state department told Iraq that we had NO OPINION regarding their idea to take Kuwait to task for slant drilling and the like.
The RETREATING COLUMNS of Iraqi men and machines were massacred in the desert.... and for what? They were going home, left Kuwait... were on their way back home and were pummeled by A-10 Warthogs and Apache helicopters after being trapped when the front and rear vehicles were wiped.

On Feb. 26 and 27, 1991, U.S. planes trapped a 2,000-vehicle convoy on the Abdali Road by blasting those in front and in the rear. American pilots bombed the resulting bottleneck for hours.
A similar scene played out on the only other highway, running along the Persian Gulf, leading from Kuwait City to Iraq.
Wave after wave of attack aircraft, Apache helicopters and A-10 Warthogs swooped in, pummeling the doomed convoy with cluster bombs, missiles and machine-gun fire.
“There’s just nothing like it,” one Warthog pilot told pool reporters days after the incident.<<
May the man/woman upstairs have mercy on us.
