UN building in Baghdad Bombed.
I really have no idea how we get out of this mess. I've been saying for a while that we need to stick it out, get a UN mandate, international cooperation, blah, blah, blah - but I'm wondering if that's even possible (and if possible, even effective) at this stage of the game.
Let's face it: we don't even know who's responsible for these attacks, or how to stop them. And every time we crack down on the rebel scum, the more stormtroopers we lose.
I'm not ready yet (as some have suggested) to give up on Iraq. I do think there is a chance that these are just Ba'athist thugs, but I'm starting to doubt it.
Of course, Vietnam looked pretty winnable in 1966.
