Even in a nightmare you might find good things to do…while awakening

Sir I just read David Gardner’s hair-raising “Lost in Iraq: the illusion of an American strategy” August 10, and, if he is right, then what he is telling us is that Iraq does not any longer exist and that even if there was never a reason for the USA to enter Iraq now there seems to be plenty of reason for why the world cannot leave Iraq. In a globalized world where does it say that the remains of a failed nation should go to the neighbours?

Also reading about the nightmare I once again felt that the best thing the USA could do, while trying to get out, is to impose, by brute force if needed, a transparent revenue sharing system that spreads out the oil income directly to each of the Iraqi citizens. Around the concept of a monthly check, of probably more that 100 dollars per citizen, you could find the real incentive needed for some good nation building. The current oil revenue sharing being discussed has nothing to do with the people but seem more like agreements between all the power grabbers about how to share the oil loot.
