I don't think anything happened that surprised Bush and his fellows. I don't think they believed any of what they were telling us...never thought the Iraqis would welcome them, knew there were no weapons and no good reason to kill the children and no links to Al Anybody...never believed they were going to rebuild anything...knew damn well they weren't bringing in Democracy or liberating anyone.
To play like it now...to pretend to be "surprised"...and need "help" to "get it right"...is just more swill.
The only policy has been to undermine...to promote Extremist Fundamentalism...to shatter progressive forces...to turn Muslim against Muslim against Jew against Christian...to set them all about each other's ears and to walk away with the spoils pointing back as they go to "natural Arab divisiveness...in-fighting...tribalism" and generally imply that they aren't worthy of the oil accidentally placed under their homes...which can be put to better uses fuleling Freedom and Democracy and our Enviable Lifestyle...the one that's killing us and poisoning the planet for everyone else.
