Random thought of the day.
Feb. 15th, 2007 06:34 pmIf Shrubya really _is_ dumb enough to attack Iran, the security situation in Iraq will immediately... "explode" might not be the most accurate word, but it wouldn't be far off. Most of the Iraqi factions that aren't currently shooting at us would start, and all the ones that are would redouble their efforts. They might even stop shooting at each other.
The Iraqi government would lose most of the popular support that it still has, if it didn't immediately disassociate itself from the US, and announce that our troops were no longer welcome. Being no longer welcome, we'd have to leave, or else admit that all our rhetoric about Iraq now being a free, sovereign country was complete bullshit. If we did stay, we'd have to start all over again, in a country where the population was now explitly hostile. Even the wingiest of wingnuts would think twice about staying in that situation.
So, with all that in mind, is it possible that _that's_ Bush's plan for unifying Iraq and Bringing The Troops Home, Mission Accomplished?... What's that, you say? "Stupid"? Stupid like a FOX!
