US to raise troop levels in occupied Iraq. The good news are that 12 000 new Yankee soldiers are not enought stop the tide of insurgency.

I don´t really like neither the US nor the insurgents to win. But the fact is that if US is to be saved from it´s aggressive tendencies and new wars are to be thwarted in the Middle East - which would create wounds as deep between the West and the Muslim countries as the Crusades - the United States must lose and it must be just hoped that afterwards the moderated forces in Iraq can take control of the country, even if that would mean civil war and the splitting of the country in Arab and Kurd parts - if not in three parts, Kurd, Arab Shiite and Arab Sunni. Sadly there are greater things in stake than the future of Iraq and the well being of it´s citizens.
