Wasn't this another Bush lie for padding his Texas defence contracts with American lives...A lot of soldiers die in ten years like Vietnam you know. Maybe the Chinese will get invloved again, do you think it's another set up for Americans?

That's because we are getting ready to send troops into Lebanon.
Republican econmics = have a war to make American weapon corporations rich.

Sure a lot of lower class Americans, whom join the military for a respected way of life, die. Sure... who cares they are a dime a dozen.

Check the number of military deaths in Iraq over the 3 year period and compare that to Vietnam. It shouldn't take long for you to realize that the numbers are nowhere close.
It would take almost 30 years of death at the same rate for it to come close to another Vietnam. The death rate is actually on a decline, and the Iraqi military continues to take more responsibility as time goes by.
I haven't heard the 10-year number you're referring to, but I'm sure it's part of a phase out plan and has nothing to do with when the Administration feels the fighting will stop.

it is extremely scary when i have a 9 year old girl and a 6 year old boy. I will say these kids are my most prized things in this world and could not imagine either of them going to war. I am sure there are other moms in my boat for having such deep love for there kids. No matter the age a kid is always your baby pride and joy. I would not be the itch to deal with if my kids got hurt or killed.

That's shallow. There have been American forces in the Middle East for decades. I would not expect the numbers to increase or even to remain at current levels as they did during the years of Vietnam and as you implied by your intentionally stupid question.
You gotta get close to your enemy's if you want to kill them.

Welcome to the Bush Broadcasting Network, where it's all WAR all the time!
Who profits from war? Is it the same people that paid Bush's campaign expenses? Hmmm.
Who fights wars? Is it the same duped masses who voted for this evil loon? Hmmm.

when it comes to George W. Bush, I have no trust in him at all, I believe everything he does is in what he believes is in his own best interest, not the best interest of the American citizens, or the US Soldiers
