[quote:Anonymous Coward 73943:MV8yMTMxMjJfNDAwMTk2OF9BODVENzE3Mg==] Its funny that this was stated to the administration by Colin Powell before the shooting war started. - He said, in effect, if you break it, you bought it. Now, we are in an unwinnable war. At the cost of over 2000 servicemen dead, 20000 wounded, and anywhere between 200 billion to 1 trillion dollars spent. I have no choice but to think its either the Neocon agenda, or the oil agenda. If its oil, what could we have developed for alternative energy if we put the war money into R&D. If its the Neocon agenda, how many Palestinians could we have paid to move, and how many Iraqi soldiers could we have bankrolled to get Sadaam out of the way. It is so non-sensical that I say its either absolute idiocy and incompetence on the part of the administration, or out and out treason. [/quote]

Whether they know it or not and i'm sure they do.
Looks like BushCo have 2 choices left at least according to this and supporting articles.

Things are starting to happen fast in Iraq now...
The recent mosque massacre by the US has stripped away the last vestiages of Shia cooperation...
But the Shia were playing the Americans for suckers in Iraq from day one.
Now what? ...how does this all end?
I suspect that the Americans will soon be "asked" to leave Iraq...by EVERYONE involved in the region...to wit: "Our Enemies." Bush has absolutely NO FRIENDS in the entire world now...! And that is hard for a US president to do.
The problem is that Bush & Co will soon be forced to "drop the mask" and reveal the true nature of their mission all along...to wit: the domination of the middle east for Oil and for Israel...
Bush will be on the horns of a dilemma then...TOTAL WAR or QUICK PULL OUT...?
And he will decide to pull out...
The war will be unwinnable short of a near total genocide against the Iraqi people...and perhaps all Muslims...
Bush doesn't have the mental capacity or the manpower to make that choice.
How grim the NYTimes article seems...almost an unreal tone to it.
I can't access the NYT article as its by subscription.
Then here.
