End of the Mandate

GW Bush touring Europe in his mission to convince Europeans to add more troops for the liberty cause. The guy comes to and end of his rule with the American economy collapsing and the US World leadership in shambles, mocked publicly by autocratic Russia that forgets how much money was poured in and subsequently stolen when their system failed in the mid 90s.

Once again , the question , what makes a man of power a great leader ? his blindness to the risks to wage wars to liberate countries with subsequent deleterious consequences because incapable of managing his policies or, besides the courage, his prudence and wisdom that take into account the real needs of his people and not those of his doctrines ?

A great outcome was the fall of a tyrant, Saddam ,but what lies after him? a country thorn by war , an unnecessary burden . What for ?
