The hard work should have been done under slick willies watch, starting w/WTC
in 93, then when the coles got bombed, then when 217 or so americans died in
lebanon and in the embassies.

you speak of doing the hard work to insure peace, and yet, you want to
flee Iraq because it's hard? you speak of the time involved in
change, yet you want immediate results from iraq?

But why would we leave? Staying is not expensive in either life or
treasure, the peace is stable, and as time passes things will adjust.
How long have we been occupying Germany now? 60 years? Change takes a
few generations, Rick. It isn't just a matter of someone telling
everyone else what to do.

I'm not sure what you mean by "worked", but no, we were not lucky.
the bad actors were identified, most of the world got behind the
effort and the situation was defused, but not solved.
in case you didn't know, but they still really hate each other there,
and if/when nato/UN leaves, they will be at each other's throats
again.
