Iraq blew up. Again.
So, anyone following the news this weekend saw the Iraq Civil War has really accelerated.
30 bodies were found beheaded and dumped on a highway and US soldiers
engaged Moqtada Sadr's shiite militia.Bad news for the Iraqis and our effort there, but who is surprised. Certainly not the authors of
Operation Cobra II: The Inside Story of the Invasion and Occupation of Iraq. It turns out, remember how Bush said the generals got everything they requested for the invasion? Well, that apparently didn't include the first Cavalry, which they apparently wanted, and planned for, then good old Rummy cut out. They were on NPR this morning. Basically, Rummy screwed us royally in failing to make plans, and often sabotaging existing plans for post-war reconstruction. In his mind, it wasn't going to happen, so no need to plan for it.
Rummy reminds me of Gaius from the new Battlestar Galactica series. It seems like his whole goal in life is to just screw everything up for humanity. Everyone thinks he's smart, but he's just an egotistical lunatic who will ruin us all.
