Since We Invaded Iraq…
…a few other things have happened on the world stage
- North Korea announced that it would continue developing nuclear arms and the missiles to deliver them.
- The Middle East Peace Roadmap collapsed and the comparatively moderate Mahmoud Abbas resigned.
- Iran may have or be close to having actual nuclear weapons (in contrast to Saddam Hussein, who it seems at most had a dormant “program”. Or in the words of Undersecretary of State for Arms Control John Bolton, “The issue I think has been the capability that Iraq sought to have … WMD programs.” Not even a program, just the seeking thereof).
- Charles Taylor is gone, but Liberia remains in shambles.
And, domestically, the economy continues toshed jobs.
