Reply #5: The Tipping Point Will Come

[The Magistrate]

When the number of U.S. soldiers killed occuppying Iraq exceeds the number killed conquering the place. When this occurs, the idea this was done to "liberate" Iraq will seem risible to the people, and the awareness the case for invasion was built by lie upon lie upon lie will become the common wisdom.

In a calculation of total casualties, this point will likely be reached around Labor Day; in a calculation based strictly upon casualties from hostile fire, it will be reached around Thanksgiving.
