Iraq is now our ally and we both fight an entirely different foe.

Sounds like you and "Rummy" made the same mistake, failing to see that the real battle was not with Iraq's inferior army, but with the aftermath of a destroyed, leaderless country. A Muslim one to boot.
The only difference is he's not still spewing this nonsense.
There is no "Iraq" right now. When there is, we'll see if it is our ally, or Iran's. The jury is most definitely out.
