I was going through this weeks Newsweek's (Sept. 15th, 2003) perspective section.
They quoted Rumsfeld and a US soldier as follows:
"We have the formula here for success." U.S Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, referring to the establishment of order in Iraq, in an address last week to the Fourth Infantry Division in Tikrit.
The next one by the soldier follows:
"I dont give a damn about Rumsfeld. All I give a damn about is going home." An unidentified U.S soldier, reacting to Rumsfeld's speech.
If this really is the formula for success in Iraq, I dunno how long the US will last in Iraq. The soldier's over there want to come back to their home while Rumsfeld is pushing them on. How can the soldiers do their job if half their mind and concentration is on their families back at home while their task demands full concentration?
Do you people think this is right? If so, how many chances do you see of US succeeding to achieve its goals in Iraq?
