It's that time of the year to make predictions for the new coming year. What will the year 2007 bring? What will 2007 be known for? My prediction is that 2007 will be the year of the meltdown. I predict that when 2007 is over that the word "meltdown" will be the word that describes the year. But in the long run it will be a good thing because America has turned it's back on reality and melting down is part of the healing process.

Everyone is asking the question, "How do we win that war in Iraq?" Shall we pull out? Shall we send in more troops? Do we side with the Shiites or the Sunnis? We aren't going to win this war because the war is not winnable. We're asking the wrong question. What we should be asking is, "How do we win the peace?" War has failed, It's time to give peace a chance. We need a plan for peace, not a plan for war. War is the problem and war isn't solved by more war. War is solved by a plan for peace.
