    Nature of Iraq misadventure was we would have to stay there indefinitely to keep lid on things. Leave, and all that sacrifice seems in vain…

        .@ByronYork @skew11 probably should have never tried to nation build in first place. Just shock and awe, remove Saddam, get out. #Hardcall

        @ByronYork makes me think of Eastern Europe: get rid of Hitler only to be replaced by Stalin and his successors.

        @ByronYork and when exactly did we leave Germany, Japan & South Korea? Seems like staying indefinitely should have been part of the plan.

        @ByronYork Successful wars require either longterm occupation or painful pacification. We aren't willing to do either.

        @ByronYork Meta-Lesson: deal with the problem or the problem will end up dealing with you. Iraq was managable after the surge, not anymore.

        @ByronYork And yet the lesson of the 9/11 was when you leave it's only a matter of time before the problem reaches your own shores.

        @ByronYork seems like Iraq needs a ruthless, secular Sunni, who hates Iran & cares only about protecting his elite supporters.

        @ByronYork Just proves if our "leaders" aren't prepared to fight a war they shouldn't start a war. Too many Americans llives were wasted.

        @ByronYork No. Nature of misadventure was thinking Iraqis wanted peace & freedom rather than tribalism & violence. Cultural blindness.
