Sourced from Orbusmax: Even the editorialists at the London Telegraph get it... so, why can't our own set of leftist just admit they were wrong and "moveon.org?"
The Arabs' Berlin Wall has crumbled

Three years ago - April 6 2002, if you want to rummage through the old Spectators in the attic - I wrote: "The stability junkies in the EU, UN and elsewhere have, as usual, missed the point. The Middle East is too stable. So, if you had to pick only one regime to topple, why not Iraq? Once you've got rid of the ruling gang, it's the West's best shot at incubating a reasonably non-insane polity. That's why the unravelling of the Middle East has to start not in the West Bank but in Baghdad."

Did I mention something about neo-comms being genetically incapable of admitting they're wrong? Well, if I didn't, I should have, because they are. God, how it must suck to be an ultra-leftist.
