Did the U.S. Betray Iraqis in 1991?
(2 of 2)
Bush has never regretted his decision not to intervene. It's debatable whether he could have given the Shi'ites and Kurds enough firepower to topple Saddam without American soldiers' being sucked into a civil war. These days George W. Bush bristles when others question whether the U.S. betrayed the Iraqis. But the decision of the father not to intervene has become a handy way for some of his son's allies to explain why the cheering for U.S. soldiers has so far been muted. --By Douglas Waller/Washington
