These jackals assume we forget their past incarnations -- as the most cynical machtpolitikkers, who propped up Authoritarian regimes (dictators and murderers friendly to the US and opposed dictators (but also reformist governments, which they labelled Totalitarian,) if they disobeyed us, or gasp! were favorable to Russia. What these people care about, have always cared about is power and empire. Saying the war was a good idea but it was the execution that was the problem is like saying jumping out a 10 story window is a good idea, except for the ending. Twisting reality to endow the Iraq war with idealistic intent is the same as Hitler's idealistic fantasy of a 1000 year Reich -- all those handsome tow heads living peacefully amongst each other, all those evil foreigners and sub humans banished. Same as the Bolshevik fantasy that all property is theft. Under this bizarre rationale, Rev Haggard was an idealist also, since he was spreading love to the homosexual community by trysting with that buff male prostitute.
