So you think Al would have invaded Iraq? I don't.
Middle East policy is a much broader concept than relations with one country. It's probable that he wouldn't have invaded but general policy would remain the same. Someone call me when US withdraws it's troops from countries that don't want their presence. I'll wait on that exact same bench.
The ideological and cultural aspects of today's "professional" politicians is very cynical, to the point of being anti human.
I would give first hand examples of politicians I have had access to, but people would be allll.....source! bullshit! etc... but for many of us it would provoke nothing more than a shrug.
You don't have to tell me. Not that I had all that much personal experiences with politicians but I am realistic and analytical enough to deduce what kind of people they are by watching things from the sidelines. One doesn't have to read Machiavelli's "Prince" or even consult history to conclude what kind of people they are. All you have to do is watch them for a while and look for patterns.
