Off the Deep End

Sullivan finally appears to have gone off the deep end as he is now comparing the US Army to the Gestapo. Way to go, Andrew. Hope your new friends at the ANSWER Coalition treat you well.

On a side note, Andrew proposes Iraq war supporters also ought to support sending troops to Gaza.

I don't quite understand what isn't clear about the surge plan. Hasn't Petraeus outlined exactly what we are trying - and isn't it worth seeing whether it will work? I don't think we should go about invading Iran and Palestine at this moment. It doesn't make sense. Why don't we wait and see the results of the surge? Andrew thinks it is bound to fail. He also thinks an invasion of Gaza or Iran is bound to fail. At one time Andrew's principal concern was the spread of radical Islamic violence. Now his greatest concern is getting out of Iraq and being a blowhard about American torture. What happened?

As for why Iraq and not Palestine - easy - Iraq matters to the global economy and our troops are already there. Palestine does not.
