New democrat congress suggested the new time table for getting out of Iraq. I was told, it is pretty much evacuating the allied troops very soon.
But according to today's news, Top U.S. army general in the mid east, John Abizaid, disagrees with it.
He instead emphathized on strengthening Iraqi government on standing up its own feet.
Abizaid's argument was that if we leave right now, there will be worse violence and chaos.
So, it looks like we can not get out Iraq anytime soon. And this will suck up our nation's energy, money, human resources, and in my opinion, this prolonged Iraq occupation will cause the U.S. to lag behind its internal development (ex: catching up the technology, funding the school systems, building more hospitals, helping out the disadventaged, etc.) to the other rising countries like China, etc.
What is your idea on how long will the U.S. stay in Iraq, and what needs to be done to ready for the U.S. leave?
I want to hear your strategy.
