Raoul, a question?
or anyone that opposed of the war:
A. Would you prefer to see the US succeed in establishing a stable democracy in Iraq and thereby validate, (to some extent), all that has been done up to now?
B. Would you prefer that we fail and be forced to leave the country unstable, thereby leaving little question that all that has been done up to now was wrong and universally recognized as unwise.
C. If neither suits you, what would you consider a best case outcome?
Remember, the question is not what you expect will happen but what outcome you would most prefer.
