A new report from the United Nations agrees with the recently released NIE and again contradicts President Bush’s rosy proclamations about Iraq.
“New explosive devices are now used in Afghanistan within a month of their first appearing in Iraq,” it said. “And while the Taliban have not been found fighting outside Afghanistan/Pakistan, there have been reports of them training in both Iraq and Somalia.”
The deicision to go to war in Iraq was faulty, flawed, and futile. The President’s strategy has been a disaster. Every day America stays the course of failure in Iraq is another day we lose the war on terror. America is under attack and the Washington Republicans give us more of the same lame rhetoric.
