Our Dear Embattled Leader expects more Iraqis will die.
But it's OK because it's good for them. As the WaPo reports, ODEL actually compared the Iraqi situation to our own War of Independence. Somehow he forgot that while the British prison hulks might be compared to Abu Ghraib, the British army was working against us.
President Bush today stood by his decision nearly three years ago to invade Iraq, despite the fact that some 30,000 Iraqis and more than 2,000 U.S. troops have been killed and he expects the violence to continue even after the country holds parliamentary elections this week.And he also managed to say that about 30,000 Iraqis have died and there are about 200,000 capable Iraqi security forces. Seems to me as if he got his numbers reversed.
In a speech in Philadelphia, Bush likened Iraq's attempts to build democratic institutions to the founding of an independent democracy in the United States, which he said was marked by tension, "disorder and upheaval."
