CITIZEN ALERT v1.133
PASSING THE SURGE
All the talk this week of President Bush using Fred Kagan's plan of sending a "surge" of 30,000 more troops to last 18 to 24 month pretty much seals it for me that the neocons are not planning for a victory in Iraq but planning for their own "golden parachutes".
This will not bring any closure to Iraq, but merely string the conflict out until the newly elected President can take the reins and Bush - in his own mind - can escape going down in history as having lost the Iraq war. By stringing the war out past 2008, they can easily place the blame on the next administration. Blaming other administrations is something Bush actually does well.
