Pentagon Rebukes Hillary Clinton Over Iraq
Analysis of how we leave our allies to the wolves because it is convenient for us seems right on the mark. We are a disposal society that aborts babies because they are inconvenient to us. Our allies have noticed the general pattern from Vietnam onwards.
When the going gets tough, we get going.
"Premature and public discussion of the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq reinforces enemy propaganda that the United States will abandon its allies in Iraq, much as we are perceived to have done in Vietnam, Lebanon and Somalia," Edelman wrote.
He added that "such talk understandably unnerves the very same Iraqi allies we are asking to assume enormous personal risks."
