DougR, don't be nasty. There isn't a single one on this Cat that does NOT wish Iraq well and it doesn't become anyone to suggest otherwise.

The fact that some of us foresee great difficulties on their path does not make us uncompassionate, insensitive or unpatriotic. It may mean that we are more realistic, however.

But with everyone I say: Good luck, Iraq. May cool and wise heads guide your way.
