Bush to Sue for Peace in Middle East?
The Iraq Study Group may be finessing into place the fig leaf that will allow the U.S. to lose its war in Iraq with minimal damage to Chimpy's legacy.
Let's hypothesize some possible U.S. concessions:
1. Iran gets to keep its nukes.
2. Israel pulls back to 1967 borders.
3. Relations are normalized Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Palestine.
At the same time, the U.S. will take its place in a new distribution of global power, a constellation of Arab States, China, Europe, Russia, and others who, in exchange for cooperation in brokering a solution to the Iraq failure, might be extracting in a few more concessions:
1. Sign the Kyoto global warming agreement.
2. Commit funds to Africa.
3. Lay off of Latin America.
4. Lay off of Taiwan.
5. Lay off of Chechnya
Who knows what kind of back room deals Baker is negotiating from the weakened position wrought by the Bungler-in-Chief and his nation of right wing enablers?
