Teribus---

You are indeed a student of history. But you fail to realize that you may not be the only such student on Mudcat.

And your blatant ideological bias impels you to force Iraq today into a historical straitjacket of your devising.


1) ALL Iraqi Sunnis are like hardcore Nazis in 1945.

Wrong--despite the ill-informed defense of your position by Kevin and Wolfgang.



2) The US attacking Iraq is like Japan attacking the US in 1941.

Wrong. LH has pointed out to you the error of your ways.



3) The Iraq insurgency/civil war is like the Malaysian situation in the late 1940's.

Wrong. Even you should recognize this by now.


Etc. etc.--ad nauseam.



Your problem is you need to start thinking-- before trying to spout your absurd attempted parallels.

And do what your hero, Mr. Bush, never does--consider arguments opposing your already-decided conclusion.

It would be a refreshing change.

Thanks so much.
