Bush will get an Iraq constitution

The problem is, the Iraq constitution will be one that the Sunnis reject and that creates three federal states with little hope of creating a single Iraqi nation. Armando discusses the constitution that will be placed on paper and trumpeted as a success by the Bush White House as he rushes through the troop withdrawal next Spring and Summer that, even yet, he refuses to provide a timetable for.

Such a success!

I found the following in an editorial from The Frontier Post out of Pakistan.

As they [The Bush administration] were flexing their muscles to take over Iraq, Saddam's intelligence people contacted their American counterparts, offering on his behalf not only intrusive inspections by U.S. weapons experts but also democratization and elections in which Saddam would not participate, even offering to go into exile.

But the Bush White House derisively spurned his offer, which could have spared the Iraqi people their travails and the Americans the severe buffeting of their image and credibility.

I haven't found any support for this statement, but it fits the nature of the Bush administrations effort to invade Iraq. Cheney and the Republicans would swap their souls for such a deal today.

Bush's unprovoked invasion of Iraq has lead to the very worst consequences that could have been imagined. The only winners from Bush's Iraq War will be the Iranian Mullahs.
