Reply #16: we have to face reality

[not systems]

I assume you are enlisting and requesting duty
in Iraq if you have not already done so?

This version of duty you are advocating sounds
a lot like white mans burden to me.

One need only look at the art produced over the
last five thousand years in Iraq to see they are
qualified to sort out their own state.

I have know idea what the Reagan quote is intended
to say in this context.

But I say "Bring the Troops Home Now" turn the
remaining cash over to a UN fund for reconstruction
and pull out.
