Oh, Henry!

James P. Pinkerton offers us a glimpse into Henry Kissenger's mind.

Here, by the way, is what Kissinger really said about military victory in Iraq no longer being possible:

If you mean by 'military victory' an Iraqi government that can be established ... that gets the civil war under control and sectarian violence under control in a time period that the political processes of the democracies will support, I don't believe that is possible.


In other words, he doesn't think it's militarily impossible, but politically impossible.

In other words, he doesn't think we have the will.

Deocracy does have its shortcomings. It's the worst form of government, except for all the rest.
