ORIGINAL: SimplyMichael Those pesky 14th century Muslims are just primitive barbarians but I am curious, can anyone name a point were Bush was less than two plays behind them? For such complete wack jobs they seem to be winning so far, they have half of Afghanistan back, they are gaining in Pakistan, a nuclear armed country, they are now using parts of Iraq for training grounds and their popularity is higher than ever and for the cost of a few airline tickets will soon cost the US $2,400,000,000,000 a) The US government and wider West will be "winning" until the day comes where the Middle Eastern countries have some decent fire power to use as a bargaining tool. b) No one exists in a vaccum, Iraqi assets are helping to fuel the US economy, from which you take a share of the spoils; admittedly, your cut isn't in the same region as that of the policy makers. c) It's a case of not being able to see the woods for the trees: squabbling over the small details serves only to detract from the big picture.
