Iraqi Shiite strength surprises U.S.: http://www.msnbc.com/news/903808.asp

Is anybody really surprised by this? Seriously?
Bush administration officials say they underestimated the Shiites’ organizational strength and are unprepared to prevent the rise of an anti-American, Islamic fundamentalist government in the country.
Wait, are you saying that this war created more enemies for us? Hmmm, wonder where I heard that before....

Sounds to me like a few more bin Ladens are in the making.
a State Department official said. “I don’t think anyone took a step backward and asked, ‘What are we looking for?’ The focus was on the overthrow of Saddam Hussein.”
That isn't exactly the problem, everyone took a step back and asked that question, but their answer was always Oil. Or as Cheney likes to say "It's all about the Bling! Bling! Baby!"
