and we spend a LOT of money dismantling them, about $120E6 each, IIRC. Wouldn't it make a lot more sense simply get our troops out of Iraq, and then reduce the place to a burnt cinder... well, maybe not the Kurdish portion but certainly the Arab portions bordering Syria, Arabia, Kuwait, and Iran. One doesn't burn down the house to get rid of termites. I hope your posting was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. And please don't think my earlier posting was meant to be in support of GWB. In my opinion, Bush is a Fascist. I don't agree with the way the war has been conducted, which seems to have been mostly for the benefit of rich corporations such as Haliburton, but I do agree with the (stated) goal of ridding the world of terrorists. |
