"It is hard to argue with his [George W. Bush's] assertion that if militants controlled Iraq, they would be well positioned "to develop weapons of mass destruction, to destroy Israel, to intimidate Europe, to assault the American people and to blackmail our government into isolation." It is also hard to resist the temptation to say he should have thought of that before invading."

Perhaps the paper has forgotten it's key role in supporting the war and providing essential propaganda cover.

If you look at the effect the war has had on the perparedness of the US military it seems that the US is the one that has been crippled.
Actually, it appears the US has developed a slight limp that will go away in a couple of months after some rest.
But that's it.
I thought it was a great editorial.....shame about the NYT's leading role in the media's unquestioning charge to an ill-fated war though....
