There is No Iraq War
The purpose of a war is to attain victory—to eliminate the enemy’s capacity to do harm and/or eliminate the enemy altogether. The military activity that George W. Bush has ordered is not a war, yet the media keeps using the phrase “War in Iraq” or “Iraq War.”
Currently, the US military in Iraq is serving as cannon fodder for people who have no conception of individual rights. The Iraqi version of democracy would include voting for the enslavement of the opposing tribe/party, and for the death of all non-Muslims infidels. While the US military is bogged down in an endless pipe-dream mission in Iraq, the higher-level criminals in Iran are allowed to continue to build military might for a true nuclear holocaust. This is no war.
Since the 9/11 attacks, the US military has flailed about not in a campaign to eliminate Islamic theocracy in the world, but to at least “do something” in response to foreign attack. Instead of engaging in politically correct “operations” while telling those in the free world to remove the liquids from their baggage, the US should use its superior military to remove the world’s theocratic governments from existence (much like the full surrender of Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany in World War II). That, and only that, would be a war worthy of winning.
