George W. Bush: Last Man Standing...

Kingmi: I'll give Bush until the end of this year to pass judgment on him regarding Iraq.

Times change and things change and so does the nature of politics and

So how do we justify being the biggest bully on the planet?

Kingmi

An excellent and mature point of view in this post. I appreciate your writing. Be blessed and have a great week end.

I would submit, kingmi, unfortunately, that Iraq is a dead end for our

foreign policy. Al Maliki or whoever takes his place (let's face it; he has about as much clout in Iraq as Bush does in the United States) is going to be bedfellows with the Iranians. They're the only two major Shiite nations in the Middle East. They will compromise and ally up. With Musharraf stepping down as president of Pakistan, look for a more anti-American president to take over a country full of radical Sunnis (is there any wonder why they've taken billions of American aid and still not produced anything resembling any kind of real leads as to where, when, or if bin Laden has ever been in Pakistan?). The Palestinians aren't ever going to accept Israel, so don't hold your breath on there ever being any different activity than what we've witnessed for decades along the Jordan. Egypt is growing more radical by the day and, possibly within the next decade or so, will put an extremist government in power that rivals the indisputably atavistic ministrations of the Taliban. Syria will keep meddling in Lebanon's and Iraq's affairs because they aren't strong enough to actually do anything. Saudi Arabia's ruling House of Saud is about to fall and the wellspring of Sunni extremism that pervades "The Kingdom" will be unconstrained (not that it is much constrained now) to push its Wahhabist doctrine. Iran is about to go nuclear. And they will, unless the United States or Israel strategically bombs them into submission, which, if that happens, will possibly trigger a regional war.

Bush didn't buy any time, kingmi. He just bought a knock-off timepiece that he thought was going to be a Rolex. That's what you get when you have a president that didn't even know that Islam was divided into religious sects (ask George I) when he was first elected. The Middle East is going to explode. It's just a matter of what triggers the charge.

And we won't even start to talk about how safe he's made the world with his idiotic War on Terror. There is no if; there is only when...
