Mea Culpa for Deeds spent Before, During and After a War.

1-Seems to me many, including Tony Blair of England, are jumping upon the bandwagon of repents. 2-Amazing as it may appear to 21 Century folks, you can't re-write history, never could. Although many have tried in vein even with 20/20 hindsight, still what happened... happened forever. 3-Some think, if Iraq were not invaded in 2003, after all no WMD were found, we would not have this monster know as ISIS>ISIL>IS today(IS). We know damn sure now, Iraq does not have WMD, nor did we ever find their air force??? 4-For crying out loud, IS... is nothing but a bunch of thugs ~35,000 strong, left over Sadamn troops, and a collection of unemployed world losers, being supplied by god only knows. 5-Put the 4th ID and support combat troops with a bunch of AF A-!0's for close air support and the conflict would be over long before election day 2016. The LDP's don't want that to happen "no US boots on the ground" per pp. That's a f------, lie. 6-Retrogress for a minute, before the invasion of Iraq the plan was to squeeze Sadamn quickly between US Armies/others from the South and the US 4th ID and support combat troops from the North through Turkey. Time line...we will never know, can't predict what don't happen either, but it would of been quick < 6 months. 7-SOS Powell struck a deal with the Turks, for US to mass in the eastern Med and enter Iraq thru Turkey. Remember Turkey is a NATO nation. 8- Ok, SOS Powell advises WH to get SOD Rumsfelt to move mox schnell with the 4th ID/support, which he did. Now for Turkey's sucker punch. Turkey closes it gates, leaving SOS Powell high and dry. Boils down to Turkey ain't gonna left no Muslim troops to cross their land to attack another Muslim nation, no matter the $ 18 B, in bribe moneys. That was never said, but that is my assessment. 9-Hence the the US force take a right hand turn in Eastern Med, and spend weeks going to Kuwait staging area via the Red Sea, around Saudia Arabia, via Arabian Sea, and up the Persian Gulf. 10-A suprise attack on Iraq, it was not. Shock and all it was. 11-Meanwhile Sadamn had time to more any WMD from Iraq to Syria, then onto Libya along with his air force planes, while US sailed 1,000s of miles to arrive at the Kuwait City pinch point .
