The Jungle In The Desert

[Indie Media Magazine]

We never learned why we lost the Vietnam War, and now we're losing another Asian War.

With the proliferation of the Internet and the spread of political polarization, there has been an explosion of know-it-alls in America. Those who know what America should and shouldn’t do, what will happen tomorrow and what won’t happen next year. They know everything.

Yet, those who claim the greatest certainty often possess the least knowledge. In full hubristic certainty, the Neocons and others in the Bush Administration guaranteed the Iraq War would be “quick and easy.” That was two years ago. That was before 1,300 Americans and 100,000 Iraqis were dead.
