Well, as long as fewer AMERICANS are dying...let's call it great big success.

'American Gulag, and a Dogfight of Psychoses'.

Part 2 is particularly interesting"

"Today, the Internet abounds with conspiracy theories about the videotape supposedly showing the decapitation of Nicholas Berg, a young American in Iraq, by Abu Al Zarqawi, an al Qaeda associate. The murder and decapitation of Berg are real, but was the video faked? If so, by whom, and to what end? And let's not forget the murder of Berg. Was he just a scapegoat? Who actually killed him?"

Truthfully, people from may parts of the world are dying over there due to our "efforts".

I believe Mr. Morris was trying to make a point along these lines even if somewhat barbed.

What we have gone on is a fools errand. Trying to foist democracy upon opposing religious sects. Jesus Christ on a crutch!
