I went to a Multi-National Force - Iraq staff orientation yesterday at the Al faw Palace. During the day an Iraqi Major General got up in front of 50 or so US staff officers and essentially blamed the US for all that's wrong in Iraq (pretty much post-1991). That's a tad of an overstatement but not by much. His message - "you broke it and you can't leave until you fix it". It was unbelievable but everyone is entitled to an opinion (unless Saddam is your boss/dicator/despot).
Now balance that with Deputy Prime Minister Barham Salen on the Colbert Report:

He gets it.
God's blessings on you. Pray for the warriors out in the dirt in Iraq and Afghanistan - they are in the suck right now.
