I don't disagree with anything I've ever said. Why in God's name would I disagree with something I've said?

Iraq has a tremendous amount of history.

There has been no case made - based on anything other than speculation - that Iraq poses a threat.

That we have collectively failed to halt and repudiate the war in Iraq makes us even worse than the Germans.

Our guys working this area for a living all believe Chalabi and all those guys in their Bond Street suits are charlatans. To take them for a source of anything except a fantasy trip would be a real stretch. But it's an article of faith among those with no military experience that the Iraqi military is low-hanging fruit.
