| Right, people were already complaining immediately after intervention that not enough had been done by way of 'nationbuilding'. I suspect many took up the banner of nationbuilding just because Bush had expressed his opposition to this, but nonetheless it is something necessary for success in "winning the peace" so the failures here reasonably are blamed. Three years later things are about the same, not much has been accomplished and lots of money allocated to the effort has disappeared.
