Harrak,
Nice - very well thought out - to that extent you are correct - George Bush is not that bright. But - that is what the US gets when it goes to sleep on foreign affairs. Bush is no genius - and Clinton did not fund foreign affairs and intel like he should have - leaving Bush way behind the game even before he got in the big chair. And so we end up here.
