Yep, but just because you can still kick a three year old’s ass in a fight doesn’t mean you’re macho.

It’s tough to tell how history is going to judge our involvement in Iraq, it could go either way. If we had done nothing Saddam would still be there. Udday and Qussay would still be operating the torture rooms. Stirrings of Arab Spring would be crushed more brutally than any other country in the region. Would Obama and NATO attempted a Libya-style intervention in Iraq? Maybe. It’s tough to guess.
