Would it not be ironically appropriate, if George Washington's farewell address plays a role in the ultimate demise of America?

Anyway, the war is constitutionally upsetting. Bush, Congress, and America were swept on the patriotic wind of post 9/11. Leave out the affairs of state and that is why we have war, it was supported by the people.

Who are the terrorists here? The few radicals disturbing global economies or the army of the most powerful country in the known world occupying a state under martial law?

We have not created a nation of democracy, but one of terrorism and violence. We have successfully instituted ourselves as a scapegoat for all these people's comprehensive miseries. Children in Iraq, four, five, six years of age and older, have only known American occupation. Do not all nations have the same unalienable rights? All Men, not only citizens of one country? One could argue radicals taking up arms against Americans is more civilized than our own theories of war. After all, what would you do? You would die for liberty and independence, is what you would do. This war was over four years ago, and the youth of a nation in a decade will have such a strong hatred for America and everything it represents, it will be etched into their memory, it will grow in their blood. America will be in the shadows, able to fight and win a war, but unable to cope with the decadence of their foreign enemies.

Finish the petty war, let Iraq have their government and propaganda as they chose, or force. Let them come with bombs and troops toward American property, then and only then will we have grievance enough to subdue them.
