Why is the Bush administration possibly sending 20,000 more troops to Iraq right before a civil war is about..

Question

to start? Do they actually think that bulking up the U.S. forces will stop the imminent civil war? Just when it's about to explode now that Al-Sadar is pulling out of the Iraqi government and Al Malki snubbed Bush, they send more troops. I'd love to know what goes through Bush's puny little brain. Mostly air I think.

To I Hate Liberals: I don't give a damn about the Iraqis, i do give a damn about OUR men and women. Remember, those 3,000 that will be killed will be killed by who? THE IRAQIS. I'd rethink my choice of who dies if I was you.

Answer 1

Humm,

Maybe to quell the so called civil war? just a thought. Why don;t you go help them. Would be 20,001 for the just war. or maybe you prefer to post this while my family has defended your right too. And yes I was there.

Thanks

Answer 2

They are sending troops one to help the current government gain control and to help control the problem. If we let these miliatia go at each other more than likely there will not be an Iraq anymore. I think that if you really put soem thought into this you would realize that we can't just leave. If we did there would be mass chaos in the Middle East as each faction would attempt to gain control of the country, and causing mass chaos is not really a good idea. Also if you are so concerned over our troops dying how about you get off your hind end and help with the war effort since its probably goign to get them home quicker if you help them then if you sit and complain about it. Bush aside these men and women are doign what they believe is right so don't criticized them or pity them help them its the best thing you can do.

It is Bush’s last attempt. Everyone in the world (and the White House) knows that Iraq is lost, however Bush is still President. As President, he can keep murdering people (American and Iraqi) with impunity.

This will only last a few months. The Republicans know that in order to have any shot at keeping the White House in 2008, the troops need to be either out, or well on their way out, of Iraq. That does not leave much time for Bush’s last gasp. Also, the Baker report (of which Bush surely already knows the findings) will be out shortly. It will be no surprise when it recommends either trying an all military campaign or getting out.

The option of further military escalation is just a cover to keep Bush from looking like the complete failure that he is. There is no military solution. In fact, there never was one. Only the neocons and the administration thought it would work.

Everyone in the world with any knowledge of the region expected the invasion to result in a civil war and further destabilize the already volatile region. Bush’s own father wrote of this in his 1998 book, ‘A World Transformed’. It is a shame the president claims to have talked to God instead of his father about his invasion plans. His father is better informed than God.

Did you ever think of that extra troops would benefit extra effective administration over there and then much less troops would be killed? Do you decide on that our troops no longer have finished administration and subsequently be in extra threat? think of roughly it, in case you're confonting ten criminals is it safer to confront them with 5 officers or 15 officers? As continuously, the Dems are playing politics with the lives of our brave troops and getting liberal media to brainwash our sheepish public into believing it particularly is solid concept. Or shall we do merely the huge liberal run and conceal plan and permit Iran have Iraq and face a plenty bigger conflict later that your infants will could combat. The liberal plan? Stick our head in the sand and desire all of it merely is going away. Our troops over there desire extra help and deserve each and every little bit of help we are able to furnish them.

Answer 5

This is a good question let me try to explain it for you. The big problem in Iraq is that after we take a town, we leave. B/c we do not have enough troops over there we cant leave any one behind to occupy that town, so when we leave the insurgents come back.

Sending 200 000 more troops will be very use full. b/c we needed to look "politically correct" we didn't want to send so many troops over there, bushes first mistake.

In my opinion we should get the hell out, attack the **** out of Iran who trains, supplies, and gives a home to terrorists. I think it is exactly what will eventually happen. Its to bad we will fail in Iraq, it could have been a great opportunity.

Answer 6

This is just getting worse and our troops are paying the price for all of the earlier greed and lies. Our choices are to stay and lose many troops, or to pull back and decide what's next. I say "save our troops." Iraq has been totally destabilized. Alternet has some very interesting articles on how the oil fields have been impacted.

Answer 7

We should instead invade Syria immediately, giving parts to both jordan and Israel.

We should then move to Iran, leaving only 20k in iraq. With iraq, ban any large outdoor gathering. If we spot one, bomb it. That includes all protests.

We also need to remove all reporters form Iraq since that is what has ruined this war, the oversaturated media coverage. Cant fight war how war needs ot be faught with a camera on every corner. War is ugly. Daily war coverage makes for a lost war.

Then we need to split Iraq into 3 countries (pre 1920s british mandate).

Answer 8

Bush administration is going to send 20 000 more troops to Iraq because they want to kill more the innocent Iraqi people.They love misery of other people.They do not know that heroic Iraqi people would not stop attacking foreign forces until the last drop of their bloods.They are ready for a long war for the sake of their own country.They hate western unbeliever arm forces because they do not want their soil is invaded unfairly.They do not afraid with the modern weapon of western forces.Making a war for them is must as a jihad for maintaining their country in freedom.
They love peace but they love more freedom of their country.

Answer 9

It is like the saying "crap or get off the pot" Let the forces build up, push the insurgents out of business, and get the job done. The build up of force is needed to get the job done, and minimalize the amount of cassulties. About time the did it this way!

Answer 10

Just because YOU don't understand, doesn't make it any less of a threat.
Fight them there, or fight them here.
Would you rather it be 20,000 civilians killed by attacks here?
At least Bush understands. If his brain is a puny as you say; but he "get's it" and YOU don't, what size does that make YOUR brain?

It is absolutely contemptible to be honest. Just watch Bush's approval ratings hit the mid 20's right before democrats take over in January!
