National Intelligence Estimate Shows Iraq War is a FAILURE

We Have Almost NO chance to Win the Iraq War!

Published on February 3, 2007 By COL Gene In Politics

This long awaited report from the 16 U.S. Intelligence agencies says we are not winning; the violence will most likely get worse and when we leave the fighting could increase more. In a nut shell, this war and the flawed Foreign Policy of George W. Bush did exactly what Gen Powell warned about—“Break it and it is yours”.

This report underscores several important issues:

This conflict is a multidimensional Civil War - Sunni against Shi, and Sunni/Shi against U.S. In addition, yesterday the new Sec Def and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs said that so far only ½ of the promised added Iraqi Forces were sent to Baghdad. Thus we are already seeing the failure of the Iraqi Government to keep up their end of this troop surge.

This report also clearly shows that this is for the most part a Civil War.

This report totally repudiates the assertions of the successes that Cheney insisted have been achieved.

WE need to remove our troops from areas in Iraq where the Civil War is being conducted and allow the Iraqi military and police to deal with that violence. We should concentrate on destroying the foreign terrorists in western Iraq and prevent foreign interference from coming across the borders of Iraq. We can not stop the growing sectarian violence.

Not less then eight people under oath have said Cheney, Libby and Rove were part of outing Mrs. Wilson. The shame is that ALL three are not trial for placing our CIA Agents in danger. Every contact Mrs. Wilson had in the past has been put in danger by what Cheney, Libby and Rove did. There is not one good reason what any of those three should have been telling the press about our CIA Agents!!!!!!!

I have proven that your statements are lies on each point, yet you continue to bring up these lies with no facts that even hint of supporting your point of view. No agents were in danger or there would be a criminal investigation. Oh wait there was one and no one was charged! Mr. Wilson lied about who sent him on his mission and if his wife did not wish to be in the game of politics then she should not have gotten her husband the job. The fact that the Wilsons are listted in Washington's Who's who for years makes it hard to say she was outted by the administration. In short you are full of lies. Provide transcripts of the trial to back up your story or I will see them as your usual lies.

Show these as FACTS! Please include testimony or find some other drum to beat!

Oh, I'm sorry you don't know what facts really are. Do you?

For sake of argument, say that is all true. Why would Fitzgerald ignore them and go after Libby for an alleged fib?

You're starting to sound like Bahu - all hypermelodramatic bullshit.

When dealing with col Gene, never confuse his issues with facts or logic. It makes his kool-aid taste funny.
