Now that Iraq is plunged into civil unrest characterized by looting and possible warlordism, we are beginning to threaten Syria. That will probably be the next battlefield, and the current chaos will be made worse with Jay Garner, a former general picked by the president to be Iraq's interim leader. Joy at liberation will turn to resentment of an occupation, much like the Soviet liberation of Poland from the Nazis. Suicide bombings will increase, and guerilla warfare against the American soldiers will ensue. Things will only get worse, and we as citizens will be commanded to support the troops and be silent about everything else.
