My current position is the same as Blair's position. He has admitted publicly that it was a big mistake and disaster.
btw. why we no longer hear the word "WMD"?

I support the war in Iraq to remove Saddam Hussein from power. I believe that if George W. Bush and Tony Blair did not remove Saddam Hussein from power, nobody else in the world would have including the United Nations. Progress Happens in Iraq everyday but it is the Liberal Media who is not telling the truth about the progress happening in Iraq and only focusing on the bad and not on the good. I do believe that there should be a time table for troop withdraw but if Iraq is not secure, withdrawing troops would be a catastrophe.

I honestly have mixed opinions on the Iraqi war with both of my opinions being at the end of each spectrum.
1. If we are going to stay then I say send in about 150k more troops in order to have no doubt of being successful.
2. We definitely need more international assistance.
3. If we choose to get out then we have to be sure Iraq can hold it's own against any insurgency. The problem with this is that the Civil War is making it impossible to maintain any sort of order.

I agree with the troops remaining in Iraq, and I believe in why they are there. I do however think it is time for our Men and Women to start making their way back home. They need to start training the Iraqi soldiers to take care of business, so our family and friends can come home and take care of their lives. We cannot just leave and say "oh well, we did our best" There needs to be a slow but steady exit made.

I think we need someone in charge of it that understands what's really going on.
It's a gang war. It's not a guerrilla war with us, civilians, and all the bad guys on a single team. There are at least four, and possibly as many as a dozen "gangs".
It's not the goal that's flawed, and it isn't our troops or the troop strength. It's the paradigm that doesn't fit reality.

My current position is the same as my position has been all along: The war in Iraq is not a war of choice that we can exit whenever we find it inconvenient to go on; it is a war of survival, and losing is not an option that is available to us.
As in World War II, we are in it for the duration and need to be determined to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes to win it decisively.

If we don't win in Iraq the muslims will be able to use Iraq as another terrorist base and they will murder more of us. If you think islam is peaceful, go read the koran and you will learn how violent islam is, and has always been. Surah 4:34 tells muslim men to beat their wives if they suspect she is thinking about being disobedient in any way, and Muhammad married a 6 year old girl named Ayesha when he was 53. Muhammad was an evil pervert, not a prophet. Do you want your country ruled by people who think it was OK for a 53 year old man to marry a 6 year old girl? We must stop them.

My current position is to stay in Pakistan, Kashmir and Southern China in luxury.
I like to send my friends to snipe at us troops in Iraq because it is so easy.

We need to be more offensive like the battle of Falujah and less waiting around for IED's while politicians squabble over table scraps, I'm tired of all this political BULL SHlT that is keeping our troops from doing their job.

Any *discussions* of the "positions" on whether the people should live or die is inappropriate. The people are dying there. Is there anything else to discuss or wonder what should we do about it? Whatever. I don't get surprised with anything anymore in now days, especially when it comes to morals.
