We've now brought Democracy to Iraq. Even the Sunnis are actively participating. How can anyone argue that we haven't now accomplished a great, historic thing there, that has made the Iraqi people, and the U.S., safer?
As Mark Steyn put it yesterday on the Hugh Hewitt show:
The Baathist diehards guarded the polling stations in the Sunni Triangle today, to prevent the Zarqawi nutters blowing them up. In other words, even...it's not just the Kurds and the Shia, and the mainstream moderate Sunni, but even the Baathist Saddamite holdouts have figured out that democracy is in Iraq's interest. The only people left on the other side of the ledger are Nancy Pelosi, Jack Murtha, Joe Biden and Zarqawi.
GWB has made a historic change for the better in the Mid-East. All we have to do now is leave our troops there long enough for the Iraqi people to become capable, on their own, of eliminating the terrorists who would like to return the nation to tyranny, with themselves as the tyrants.
