On a similar note!!
On a book I read a while back, it mention how the Bay of Pigs deal was set up to fail from the begining just to make JFK look bad. But again all this is some author's idea or interpretation.

We are probably doing the same thing in Iraq at this very moment. All of the recent "gains" have been because the Sunni have decided to become our part time buddies. Never mind that these are the same wonderful folks who were Saddam's base core that we invaded to get rid of.
Chances are that at some point in the future the very weapons we are supplying to the Sunni and the former Baathists will be used either against us or the people we want to be in control in Iraq.
Thus the policy of idiocy that seems to guide the USA in the Middle East.
