Can Godly men make a mistake?

 I read an article recently that made me think and had some good points on the issue of Iraq.

Can a good leader make monumental mistakes? Can a man who leads a country, who allegedly prays about major decisions, and who comes across as a reasonably nice guy  - can someone like that make huge errors of judgment? ...

...Both Howard and Bush (and Tony Blair too) made a wrong decision. There were no weapons of mass destruction. There was no serious threat to world stability having Hussein in power. He was not a nice leader, granted. He did evil things. But there are dozens of evil leaders in this world. And he did not kill as many people as have been killed in the war and its ongoing violence. No: it was immoral and godless to start a war that has led to the inevitable guerrilla warfare and ongoing slaughter of soldiers and civilians. The western leaders will be judged by history (and by God?) for what they have done. They are aggressors. The war was never justified, never “Godly”, and should not have happened under the circumstances in which it did.

The answer is obviously yes they can.  The other question that must be answered is how does one (or one Nation) correct the error?  How do we undo the damage and fix up the mess.  Click the link at the bottom to read the full article by Jim Reiher.
