It has gotten worse. An invasion based on false assumptions and a misleading premise has become the rape of a nation and the destruction of an ancient culture. The time will come when we will look back on all this as a stain on our history and an international disgrace. This is no war and never was such. It was always planned to be a painless victory, a fight with no enemy worth the name. It now rots away like some decaying corpse of the body politic. Yet still the war is rationalized and defended by people who cannot admit that they were wrong. There is no progress, no freedom and, it seems, no hope.
