US powerplay in Iraq not a marriage

Comparing U.S. "involvement" in Iraq - Afghanistan for that matter (and I believe the same is true for a long list of U.S. "involvements" going back a century or more) - to a "bad marriage" ...

A marriage gone bad might have been a good marriage at some point, or it might have always been a bad marriage from the very first moment, BUT ...

There was a time for improving the marriage, a time to talk and to cooperate, a time for mutual understanding, and there was a time for counseling, a time for each partner to hope for improvement.

In the end there is only a time to leave, perhaps without saying another word, a time to let go, a time for no more.


For as much as we can and do intellectualize and verbalize, emotionalize and rationalize ...

Reality regarding current U.S. involvement in Iraq is that whatever the "best intentions" of anyone involved, the situation NEVER WAS a marriage at all, but a "relationship" which began as a brutal rape.

World opinion was set against that criminal act before it occurred - around the world, millions of people protested the proposed "action" against Iraq, as they had the action against Afghanistan, and only in a very few countries did anything amounting to "approval" exceed more than 10 to 12 percent, according to polling at that time.

The current situation in which the U.S. government finds itself in a quagmire of its own creation in the Middle East is as untenable as the debt-based monetary system which keeps the entire U.S. Empire operating, which means it is only a matter of time until the "chaos" that empire has created - not just in Iraq - in order for rulers of that empire to *police* this world, will overtake all peoples of our world, and there will be no policemen, no armies, no air power, no power at all which can stop that chaos from running its course
- only a matter of time, and a very short time it is now until.
