3. Oh, that's funny.
I find myself in agreement with both the OP, and the reply.

6. Thanks. It's hard to convince some people that the Neo-cons are not
really that smart. Nor can they see into the future.

My guess is that they're actually wetting their pants over this.

9. I wasn't suggesting they're smart. They just think they are.
And what we see is a direct consequence of their fucked up ideas.

They went into this shit like two children playing "good guys and bad guys".

Well, reality doesn't work like that, and sometimes the "good guys" lose.

4. Agreed. It's major bullshit.

The fact that these chickenhawks tried to say invading and occupying Iraq would some how create democracy in that region, makes me physically ill when I put it into the context of what is happening right now.

8. The OP seems to think that the neo-cons are some kind of gods, and
can see into the future.

I don't think so.

10. LOL I am the OP, and I agree with you, bro...
They said we would be greeted with flowers and candy.

Instead it's anarchy and chaos.

2. Not Neo-Con Democracy. Neo-Con Agenda.
Iraq/Bases for foothold. Chaos for exploitation.

7. Well it seems democracies can bomb the living shit out of
non-democracies, or terrorist supporters, or terrorist sympathizers, or those ignorant or incapable of expelling terrorist infiltrators, and it's all about self-defense, sovereignity and promoting democracy.

It's so self-evident. :shrug:
