A New Day, A New Mission

What Kos says:
So listening to the latest rash of "mission accomplished" talk in the wake
of the elections, it's striking how the other side has convinced itself that we
have spent $200 billion and over 1,500 US and allied lives so that Iraqis could
vote.

These people couldn't give a rat's ass about Saudis not voting (in any
meaningful fashion), they couldn't care about Uzbekistanis suffering under their
own torturing regime, they couldn't care about that great Democratic nation --
Pakistan -- with its military coup-installed dictatorship.

That's exactly right. War boosters never cared about the Iraqi people. Just watch how happy they are when an Islamic Republic is the end result. These same Iraqis that were worth so much American blood and treasure will soon be the "enemy" again, and calls will go up to nuke 'em all.
