Charles V. Pena has an interesting point about the cost of the War in Iraq.
"Former U.S. National Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski has surmised that 'we will never achieve democracy and stability [in Iraq] without being willing to commit 500,000 troops, spend $200 billion a year, probably have a draft, and have some form of war compensation.'"
As I have said before, I have a feeling that if it comes to the point where the costs of the war are overwhelming, and if Bush is not willing to withdraw, and if he refuses to go to a draft, there is only one option: mass murder.
If it comes to that, I have a feeling that the administration will resort to simply firebombing Sunni Arab towns and massacring the survivors, until the Sunni Arabs are finally subdued or wiped out.
Of course, without hte Sunni ARabs, there is a good chance that other problems will appear in Iraq, but wiping them out would probably be the government's first step.
Oh, cynical am I? Surely, wonderful, Christian George W. Bush wouldn't commit genocide, would he?
Ha.
That is all.
