Re: Bush challenges Democrats to offer plan for Iraq
Originally posted by Miroslav
Whether or not he fully admits it, the only "goal" by default that Bush has right now by staying there is the goal of nation-building.
That means that all Bush has to do is:
1. killing all the opposition(s) and create peace
2. build all of the infrastructure and get the economy to work
3. create all of the civic/governmental/institutional processes that lead to the democratically oriented outcomes he wants to see
4. change the Iraqi peoples' opinions, values, and cultural characteristics that they have cultivated over generations for thousands of years, so that they embrace his American-style democratic system now.

bwaaahahahahahahahaha.
Agreed that that seems to be what we're doing now -- however, remember this?
"I don't think our troops should be used for what's called nation building."
