Governments have a tendency to intervene. Just as domestic
interventions often lead to unintended negative consequences, so
too with foreign interventions. The Iraq War should never have been
fought and probably can't be won in a meaningful sense. The result
is likely to be further threats to our freedom by foreign terrorists
and by the U.S. government. The best strategy is the one suggested
by Vermont Senator Aiken during the height of the Vietnam War--declare
victory and get out. Both Bush and Kerry should renounce their
support for the Iraq occupation.
