it was a repeat of an old frontline episode, i think:

I was impressed, I learned a lot I didnt know about what happened. It kind of makes it seem like we blew it. Even though Iraq left Kuwait, teh Kurds thought BUsh would support their uprising, and Swartzkopf ended up authorising military Iraq helicopters to battle the southern uprising. It seem slike we could have helped the Iraqis defeat Sadam

"next" quagmire, meaning the one that started 8 years ago?

maybe meaning the one to which they're shipping materiel and troops from Iraq

lol, right, the one that's 8 years old and not "next" at all. I've heard of it.
