What the neocons failed to foresee about Iraq

Take a walk, smell the roses. Any topic is fine, save people bashing.

Excerpt from the Independent, Mar 12, 2006
It has taken more three years, the loss of tens of thousands of Iraqi and American lives, and the expenditure of $200 billion -- all to achieve a chaos verging on open civil war. But finally the neoconservatives who sold the United States on this disastrous war are starting to utter three small words.
We were wrong.
The second thoughts have spread across the conservative spectrum, from William Buckley, venerable editor of the National Review, to Andrew Sullivan, once editor of the New Republic, now influential commentator and blogmeister.
The patrician, conservative, Washington Post columnist George Will was gently skeptical from the outset. He now glumly concludes that all three members of the original "axis of evil" -- not only Iran and North Korea but also Iraq -- "are more dangerous than when that term was coined in 2002."
