Iraq and US – it’s all about perception?
It’s a beautiful Sunday. As I’m “surfing” through the Internet, I find some articles about US and Iraq. As you know the US are partially withdrawing from Iraq. The impact?
Let’s see two opinions:
Wall Street Journal online has an article titled: Why We’re Winning Now in Iraq. The Daily Star has another article – written by a “former Bangladesh Ambassador to the UN, Geneva”: Exit strategy from Iraq: Will US withdrawal diminish its image?
So what is it? Is this withdrawal a success? Does it matter only what one wants to see – victory on it’s part? Is perception still everything?
