Anbar
Robert Kagan on Bush's Anbar conference and the progress, facts and lessons of the Anbar Awakening.
Some things fail to occur to those accusing Bush of causing civil war in Iraq. First, the U.S.A. has itself been through the fires of a horrible civil war and knows what ensues from that; second, the very notion is assinine and juvenile.
Idiots bray that Americans have forgotten the lessons of that time in history. They have not.
An entire Iraqi province the world had declared lost has been transformed by Iraqis and Americans working together in their purest common interest: freedom.
Imagine that.
