Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

>As you probably can guess, my opinion is it's a mess. Not necessarily a completely irretrievable mess (though parts of it are irretrievable--the looting has consumed and destroyed far more than the "vase" that Rumsfeld so humorously referred to in his press conference last week, and not just museum pieces, but legal records and bank accounts), but a mess nonetheless.

While people in this country may celebrate for the moment, anyone who has a mind and can see farther than the edge of their nose is not celebrating. It's a mess.

=========================================

Has everyone forgotten Germany in 1945?
Japan in 1946?
The Old South in 1865?

I really take offense to statements like "the war was the easy part". Do you really think the people who supported this action are so ignorant and naive to believe rebuilding will be easy? That there will be no long term scars?
