The same US military experts who brought us the disastrous failure of the War in Iraq with its 4,000 dead US soldiers and hundreds of thousands of new Iraqi cemetery plots are finding fault with the Iraqi government's invasion of militia-held Basra.
Ambassador Watt A. Crock told reporters on the ground in Baghdad, amid the insurgents' rockets' red glare, that the Iraqi army was not prepared for the long haul required to capture militia-occupied Basra: "You can't do it with a blitzkrieg of Shock and Awe. Herr Colonel Rumsfeld tried that and it failed. We thought the Iraqi's were smart enough to not imitate American military strategy. After all it's destroyed their country beyond recognition and most Iraqis would like Saddam back and Bush hanged!"
True Iraqi ruler al-Sayyid Moqtada al-Sadr celebrated his victory over the American trained Iraqi Army by drinking US blood from the first American soldier's skull killed by his Mahdi army: "My American buds have proven to be the king of biers!"
