Pretty bad when nations can accuse the US of being that unethical and honest as to warrant this sort of hype.

I dont think that George Bush ever expected to be King of Iraq. It looked like a good move at the time, so he made it. The invasion went well, perfect even. The occupation on the other hand was another matter, but it isn't fair to accuse George Bush alone for how things in Iraq turned out, theres too many variables. You can't predict the future, but you can be prepared for the worst. I don't think ground level commanders in Iraq were ready for the worst, and it took a long time for proper strategies to be developed for that kind of war. If NATO (I'm mainly refering to U.S, British and Canadian troops right now) can fight in Afghanistan and Iraq (Canada is not in Iraq) they can fight anywhere. The conditions fighting in, I dont know, Europe or North America (Conspiracy theorists go hard :roll would be easy after that kind of war.
