Exporting democracy to Arab Countries...

This now should read like selling freezers to the Eskimos, especially after what's going on today in Iraq. After the misguided invasion of Sadam's Kingdom in 2003, we just destroyed the (tyrannical) cement that was holding that three-piece country together and, today, it's finally self-fragmenting as I predicted it would.

Just like Yugoslavia breaking into pieces, we'll see very soon at least a separate Kurdish entity and an Arab state, unless we see the entire region shatters into many more nations, tribes or sectarian factions.

So, should we intervene? Certainly not and if we ever sent “boots on the ground”, it should be the “dirty quintet”: Dick Cheney, George Bush, Donald Rumsfeld, Condoleeza Rice and Tony Blair!
