This is an unwinnable war. The US has disgraced itself in world opinion. Arabs are hopping mad. (Maybe they do the same thing to their own people sometimes but they are not dominating a foreign country).

Rumsfeld, the Lynndie England girl, and all of it is really beside the point. On June 30, there is no one government in place for Iraq. Just furthur domination by the Bush Administration. It's another Vietnam and we may as well get used to that idea. It has strengthened the resolve of Al Quaeda. If they institute a draft, there will still not be "getting the job done" because the "job" is coercing democracy at the point of a gun. That has never worked.

The reason that construction workers are being targeted is because they represent the business interests that iraqis know do not represent them.
Private American contractors must be replaced by construction businesses that reflect the world community through the UN and not the narrow interests of Brown, Root and Kellogg or Haliburton.

In short, the Bush Administration has not made the world more secure or safe from Al Quaeda or anyone else.

Internationalize the process and their might be some dim hope for a decent outcome.

In the meantime, there will be more atrocities on all sides including the US.
