The Clusterfuck Nation Chronicle

It seems to me you can call the situation in Iraq a lot of things, but it’s not a war. Not at this point, anyway. Call it an unsuccessful nation-building project, a failed occupation, a botched policing job, a monkey-in-the-middle clusterfuck. All the US political factions, from left to right, do the public a disservice by calling it a war, because it misrepresents what we’re doing there.
