Down with the Berlin Wall, Up with the Baghdad Wall
The situation in Iraq is by no means easy, but the U.S.’s latest strategy to curb insurgency — the construction of a wall around a Sunni neighborhood — is outrageous. Surely someone who has cracked open a history book is available to mind the store? When has segregation ever solved civil strife? This is more of the cowboy foreign policy we’ve seen these last six years. Having failed to shock and awe their way towards victory, the Bush Administration and their misguided representatives in Iraq will now try to corral those ponies.
Building walls is no way to promote “democracy.”
