World Cup Fever/Iraq war metaphor

Al-Zarqawi is dead, Bush is just back from Iraq, and there is actually a glimer of hope that Iraq is not headed to hell in a handbasket.

I want nothing more that to BE WRONG about Bush's Iraq War follies... I've always been ready to eat some crow. And yet somehow--recent good news not withstanding--I can't shake the feeling that the mess in Iraq was a collosal foreign policy blunder.

Hmm I like the comparison you used for this post. Seeing as how USA soccer is one big joke itself.

I want to be wrong, too.

It is a blunder. The US military and foreign policies helped to promote the insurgency. Killing Zarqawi is a milestone, not a victory.
