After four years the American invaders haven't even been able to secure the capital of Iraq The war in Iraq is gradually becoming the war in Bagdhad. About 17.000 of the 20.500 troops will serve as reinforcement for the already active soldiers in the capital and still the war in Bagdhad will be lost. The most quiet part of the country is Kurdistan, where there are considerably fewer American soldiers and were they don't patrol the streets. The conclusion is simple: more American soldiers equals more violence equals more Iraqi casualties (and an in comparison negligible number of American dead soldiers, a mere few thousand probably). Even the British seem to do better in Basrah. At least Bush has his very own exit strategy As far as I understand the American Constitution it is Congress that can declare war and raise armies. The president is only Commander in Chief as long as there is a war and since this particular war was started on vicious lies, Congress could come to the conclusion that it should be ended. It could also investigate how a nation was fooled into believing the lies that led to an illegal war. And last but not least it could indict the guilty parties for war crimes. Maybe, just maybe, it would recover some of the lost honor of America. More importantly: it is probably the only way to prevent a further spreading of the war to the whole region.
