Ja jeg kan godt se det hele lyder katastrofalt? Man kan også se sådan på det:
“[O]ther parts of the world — say, Sudan — are as bad off as Iraq, or worse. So maybe the rule is: Do nothing, and you’re held harmless; intervene and fail to make things perfect, and you’re out. But where’s the evidence that Americans are worse off, in any tangible way, because of Iraq?…Iraq is not World War II; in terms of casualties, it’s not even Vietnam. Yes, the war is costing tens, even hundreds, of billions of dollars. But America’s gross domestic product is $13 trillion a year… The loss of Iraqi life? Well, sure, that’s tragic, too. But if ‘sectarian violence’ means anti-American Shiites killing anti-American Sunnis, and vice versa, how much sleep should Americans lose over Bush’s ‘failure’ to stop it? That may sound cold, but the killers are free to end their violence whenever they like” — New York Post columnist Adam Brodsky.
