Iraq, a Major Error

From the beginning of its involvement in the internal affairs of Iraq the United States was doomed to failure. The reasons are many and include Intelligence failure, Presidential arrogance, House and Senate ineffectiveness, and a citizenry ignorant of its own Constitution.

Prior to the invasion of Iraq, a Sunni ruled the Shia and Kurd population with violence. Iran, being majority Shia, and a Sunni led Iraq are natural enemies. Intelligence would have warned that Iran would seek to become involved in an unstable Iraq.

Recently Saudi Arabia has informed the United States they would support the minority Sunni if the United States left Iraq unsupported.

IRAQ Majority Shia
IRAN Majority Shia

SAUDI ARABIA Majority Sunni

SYRIA Majority Sunni
LEBANON Majority Shia
PALESTINIANS Majority Sunni

Our President has made a major error and as a result has made himself and his generals liable to War Crimes Trials, if the United States loses in Iraq. The real problem is there is no way for the United States to win.
