#2 I think Jaafari is right, but that history will be written in a very different future to our present.

#3 Assuming we don't lose, of course. In which case the only "history" will be mumbled from Orcish scrolls.

#4 It's completely astounding to me that someone like Jaafari sees the future (and understands our history) with more clarity than even the homefront politicos do. Is this scrappleface?

#5 The Shi'ite leprechaun (as we used to call him, somewhat affectionately, though he was not up to the very difficult task presented him) is correct, most likely. Of course, his prediction applies even more forcefully to Dubya. Bush has fallen short of the standards he set in his best days (WRT Iraq, the Paleostinians, in general), but at least he took some consequential decisions whose short-term costs have the political class in hysterics, but which will probably turn out positively even if the exploitation phase has been less than masterfully handled.
