5. on a thread that just got locked
before I had a chance to respond. Someone was saying that we here celebrate and encourage the failure of our military in Iraq.

Of course we do not.

But I was reminded of what Richard Clarke said last eve on the Daily Show. He said, "they (the military) should just stop doing stupid things (re: atttacking Falluja, retreating from Falluja)." He said that the military didn't want to do it. Washington demanded it.

He's really so clear and cogent on these matters. Hope to hear more from him.
