U.S. as a colonial power?I rather agree with this. Wesley Clark thinks the Bush administration has simply bungled the whole problem of Iraq, through arrogance and lousy leadership. It's not that Saddam hasn't earned himself a war, if only for the U.N. resolutions he's flouted in the last couple of months -- as Sullivan argues pretty persuasively here -- it's that any war on terrorism has to be a focused response to September 11, or else it becomes a stupid wild adventure with unintended (colonial) consequences. I've been ringing changes on the same tune for a while now, but obviously no one at the White House pays much attention to Radio Free Mike.
