American Decline Evident in Iraq

As the Bush-Cheney dictatorship draws to and end, since our dictators serve terms in office, the situation in Iraq looks far worse for the United States than is being widely recognized. No one really wants the U. S. to stay in Iraq and the United States doesn't want to leave.

The U.N. figleaf "authorizing" the U. S. occupation of Iraq is also about to expire. Of course the United States opposes international law so I suppose this is not a real concern to Bush-Cheney.


U.S. efforts to pass off Iraqi oil to American Oil Companies seems unlikely to succeed. Even the U.S. established regime wants the United States to get completely out. I wonder if the United States will even be able to hold on to the so-called "green zone".


So will the United States overthrow the current Iraqi government or is it so weak it must simply go home.
