Mission Accomplished - 4 years later....

In the irony of all ironies, our prezeedent is on schedule to receive on his desk, and swiftly veto, the legislation mandating a troop withdrawal from Iraq.

"The battle of Iraq is one victory in a war on terror that began on Sept. 11, 2001, and still goes on," Bush said on May 1, 2003, in front of a huge "Mission Accomplished" banner.

Well here it is, 2007, 3300 US troops killed, over 24,000 injured (US figures only). Mission accomplished. Yep. Which mission was that W? The one to overthrow your daddy's nemesis or the one to murder innocent civilians? Maybe the one to throw the entire Mideast region into chaos and put the world on the brink of "nucular" war? Well done good and faithful servant. I rather wish he had buried his "talents" instead of proliferating war as his main talent.

Here's a story for you, Army officer article (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070427/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iraq_officer_s_assessment) Some snippets from the AP article:

BAGHDAD - An active duty U.S. Army officer has taken the unusual step of openly criticizing the way generals have handled the Iraq war, accusing them of failing to prepare their forces for an insurgency and misleading Congress about the situation here.

"For reasons that are not yet clear, America's general officer corps underestimated the strength of the enemy, overestimated the capabilities of Iraq's government and security forces, and failed to provide Congress with an accurate assessment of security conditions in Iraq," Lt. Col. Paul Yingling wrote in an article published Friday in the Armed Forces Journal.

Several retired U.S. generals have delivered similar criticism, questioning planning for the Iraq conflict as well as the management competence of former Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld.

But public criticism from an active duty officer is rare and may be a sign of growing discontent among military leaders at a critical time in the troubled U.S. military mission here.

An anti-war group, Appeal for Redress, says about 2,000 active duty personnel and veterans have signed a petition calling for a U.S. withdrawal from Iraq.

In the article, Yingling, deputy commander of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, wrote that the generals went into Iraq prepared for a high-tech conventional war but with too few soldiers.

They also had no coherent plan for postwar stabilization and failed to tell the American public about the intensity of the insurgency.

"The intellectual and moral failures common to America's general officer corps in Vietnam and Iraq constitute a crisis in American generalship," said Yingling, who has served two tours in Iraq as well as in Bosnia and the 1991
Gulf War.
