If the institutions charged with protecting our Constitution continue to act as sycophants to domineering authoritarian leaders then the only thing that will change is the venue onto which we project military force.
BTW, the bunch of crazies in the OVP look into the future and see threats in Africa, Southern Asia, Indonesia, China and the Commonwealth of Independent States. Iraq is the perfect place to have 3-4 super bases from which the US can project military force against ALL these threats. It's seven-eight hours flying time to everything we may want to "defend" for 'western civilization.'
In the wacked out eternal cold-war mentality of the neocon OVP, and the neocon NSC, the strategic importance of these bases in Iraq is many times more important than most people realize.
The Cheney administration has NO intention of bringing troops home from Iraq. It's intention is PERMANENT bases there. They've already said so, we are supposed to bring our mindset to a settlement in Iraq like the one we have on the Korean pennisula one that stretches to the ends of our lifetimes.
