Are the Left their own worse enemies?

Whatever the right and wrongs of the Iraq invasion (would a UN resolution really changed the opinions of the soppy anti Blairite left about the invasion?). Nevertheless – we are in the ‘here and now’ and we have to deal with the situation in Iraq as it is, and not as we wish it to be.

If you are still in favour of the insurgents/terrorists in Iraq as many of the soppy liberal left appear to be, they are acting against there own declared philosophy and the interests of the people of Iraq and appear to be arguing for an undemocratic theocratic dictatorship.
