Zombietime wishes to commemorate the remarkable progress in the last year or so in Iraq by setting today, the 22nd of November, as Victory in Iraq day. I agree, but read the whole thing.
To be honest, I strongly disagree. The previous regime was awful, but the military occupation is much worse: it's led to widescale destruction and slaughter, as well as a myriad of other atrocities.
Especially since the cause of the war was so corrupt - as was the alleged "War on Terror" - I don't think the war in Iraq can be counted as any kind of victory, or anything other than a crime. But that's just my two cents.
