"The war in Iraq is less about geopolitics than about the clash of ideologies,
culture and religious beliefs. Because of the long reach of the Islamist
challenge, the outcome in Iraq will have an even deeper significance than that
in Vietnam. If a Taliban-type government or a fundamentalist radical state were
to emerge in Baghdad or any part of Iraq, shock waves would ripple through the
Islamic world. Radical forces in Islamic countries or Islamic minorities in
non-Islamic countries would be emboldened in their attacks on existing
governments. The safety and internal stability of all societies within reach of
militant Islam would be imperiled." Henry Kissinger
