Let's Ask Again: Is It Vietnam Yet?

Somehow I doubt SPIEGEL ONLINE will carry this story: No US casualties in Iraq for August.

More proof that Iraq is a hopeless quagmire as the German media has been telling us for years now. And Bush's Middle East policy was such a disaster for the region that we now see revolutions toppling dictators everywhere and Al Qaeda being decimated. After all - if we can continue to blame Bush for the current economy - can we also blame him for the recent developments in the Middle East and in the fight against Al Qaeda?
