Paul Craig Roberts’ Prophecy About to Come True

In a column dated April 1, 2003, Paul Craig Roberts wrote:

Despite stiff and unexpected Iraqi resistance, the U.S. invasion of Iraq is likely to succeed in toppling Saddam Hussein—and British Prime Minister Tony Blair, President Bush, the Republican Party, and American neoconservatives.

Blair is gone, the Neocons are looking for new hosts, and a week from tonight, the Republican Party will be decimated and most likely will be irrelevant for at least my lifetime and may never hold either the White House or a majority in either house of Congress again. It seems that it took a while for everything to come to pass, but Roberts got it correct.
