"President George W.

U.S. President George W. Bush pretended yesterday that the military strategy in Iraq was a success. Meanwhile on the same day, the United Nations described the security situation in that occupied Arab country as “fragile,” as a response to American insistence that the global organization and Arab countries send emissaries and ambassadors to Baghdad, even while it remains under occupation.

The American president, preparing his luggage for his departure from the White house, seeks a victory for the history books. And While he imagines Iraq as the scene of this victory, former White House spokesman Scott McClellan has described Iraq as the greatest strategic blunder Bush ever committed, charging him with relying on propaganda rather than facts to bring about that unnecessary war and deceive the American public. McClellan also accused the president of not being candid with regard to the Iraq invasion.

 

Indeed - the Iraqi curse that dogged Bush inside the White House will follow him outside the White House!
