Losing Iraq: A First Look at Frontline's New Documentary

 

[PaintMyHouse]

Perfect place for it since Iraq was lost as soon as Bush and Cheney were elected.

 

[Lakhota]

The Middle East would be much more stable if Saddam were still in power. Bush and Cheney handed Iraq to Iran on a silver platter.

It's Bush's fault, yeah we know.

Yes actually, it is...

 

[nodoginnafight]

At this point the only legitimate purpose in re-hashing the mistakes of the past is to make sure we don't repeat them.

I trust PBS to do this in the right way and look forward to seeing what they've come up with.

I trust pbs to offer a partisan one sided conclusion.

If only they were Fox "News" right, as in fox in the hen-house.

Fox is like national enquirer.

Not sure how often you watch PBS - or any other outlet - but PBS is extremely "unopinionated" compared to most others imho.

Is your news source then a voice in your head?

I watch some programs on pbs, science and nature. I don't watch their politics.

Then what makes you think they will offer a partisan conclusion?

Indeed.

Losing Iraq: A First Look at Frontline's New Documentary

I shall watch. Like Frontline and enjoy some of their episodes that do not bend leftward. I was against Iraq War from the very start. Foolish. Saddam could of kept the savage Islamic fundamentalist in check. Some of my fellow conservatives say, "It's too late to look backwards now, we must deal with ISIS!" No. The definition of insanity is to keep doing the same mistake over and over again. We cannot put troops on the ground in Iraq again. Hey European Union,where are you at?

 

[g5000]

It's Bush's fault, yeah we know.

It is, actually. If he had not demobilized the Iraqi Army after Hussein's fall, things would have turned out far differently.

I still believe a second war with Iraq was inevitable, but Bush fucked it all up with that demobilization.

Yes actually, it is...

They think it's Obama's fault. Like the deficit and what happened after Katrina.

In this other thread, USMB Republicans don't even know what Bush and the Republicans did to Christians in Iraq. They called me a liar and dared me to prove what happened. I even used sources like the American Conservative. How can USMB Republicans be so dumb? It can't be. It must be denial.

 

[Pennywise]

I may watch this even though PBS is a joke if you are looking for unbiased information. I supported the war initially and I regret that, but it did seem like things were somewhat stable before Obama called it done without even having a status of forces agreement.

I don't know what's right, but unless we plan on completely abandoning the M.E. (which I support fully), we have no business leaving Iraq in ruins. Leave the M.E. entirely, or fix what we broke.

Ron Paul is right on foreign policy.

 

[g5000]

If we ever do become truly energy independent, the Middle East will devolve back into warring tribes. No Caliphate. Just never ending strife between warlords.

But we have been hearing promises of energy independence since, what, Nixon?
