Every now and then Charles Krauthammer says what needs saying. Writing in the National Review Online, he has an interesting 'take' on the situation in Iraq.
He argues that blaming Americans for the violence in Iraq is nonsense. He concludes "It willfully overlooks the plainest of facts: Iraq is their country. We midwifed their freedom. They chose civil war. "
If he is correct, that makes a good argument for leaving and letting the Iraqis get on with the bloodletting.
