i am not saying it has anything to do with the uk but the uk is the only big friend the usa has at the moment and i dont think the usa has enough soldiers to police the whole of iraq and the rest of the world like it tries to. the uk has alot of soldiers in iraq and to replace them with american soldiers will hurt the usa quite a bit the usa is struggling to get soldiers in to iraq as it is and replace them. hasn;t the usa called up the national guard to fight now.

America can't do anything on it's own without the Brits

We won both we fought with the British. We beat Mexico and Spain. We won the one we fought between ourselves. And we basically saved the mighty British Empire in both WWI and WWII. So don't knock us. When the USA pulls out of Iraq, the government there now will fall. They will have themselves a celebration for a week, then commit national suicide in a unrestrained civil war. We don't need any ones help with the fact our commitment is the only thing keeping a lid on anything there now. Yes, we could win. If the politicians in DC would bite the bullet. Reinstate the draft. Focus on total destruction of either the Sunni or Shittites. And make an example. They won't do it. So we won't win. That does not mean we can't fight. Just means national survival is not on the line with this war.

The US can "win" in Iraq without any alllies.

It depends on how one defines "win", it depends on the will of the US population to continue spending $8 billion/month and the lives of perhaps 200 soldiers a month, it depends on the capability and willingness of the Iraqi government and people to take responsibility for their own security. And it depends on Iran and Syria to control terrorists crossing their borders into Iraq.

Whether we have allies or not is immaterial to winning a war. (BTW, we did "win" in Grenada and Panama..)

Winning in Iraq means much more than destruction of a regime - it means nation-rebuilding a society which existed for years under a dicatorship.

Could you give a source for the claim the US now says there is no special relationship with the UK. I haven't heard that before.

The U K is a joke. We do have other allies without yellow streaks and I'm not talking about the ones on your teeth. And War was never declared in Vietnam. Your just still mad because we kicked you morons out of our country. If we have to, we would invade Britian and turn it into another state and send all the illegal immigrants there. That way when they breed with your sister, you will actually have relatives that are higher class than you.

Funny! I believe the UK made that statement first.
Check the facts & you will see the UK supplies a very small percentage of troops or supplies. Whether we win or not will have little or nothing to do with the UK. More to do with the
civil war trying to break out.

Actually, acting independently, the USA has only won wars in Grenada, against the Spanish and the Mexicans. All other independent actions have been failures. In Korea they got their arses kicked by the North Koreans, and in Vietnam, whether war was "declared" or not really is irrelevant. Successful US military actions have often been as part of allied forces, and often behind them, as happened in the first Gulf War. Most of their military sucess has come from killing allied troops, women and children.

Lmao..Wow..The US has never lost a war, period and you know that. The only thing that came close to it was Vietnam, and that wasnt even a war. Congress never declared war.

We won 1812, the Korean War is still going on if you look into it, and things like the Phillipeans and Somalia arent wars. Those are peace keeping missions.

You should look into all of these or question whoever taught you your history.

you're like an really abnormal liberal conservative. I agree including your pulling out frame of mind, yet i do not believe something else. first of all, we shouldn't positioned the load on different international places. We all started this warfare, it is our job to stop it, no longer unavoidably end it. we would want to seem even extra of a jackass if we stated, we are leaving, it is your challenge now. Secondly, goofed up about WMDs? i don't believe of this change into about WMDs contained in the first position. The conservatives purely had to tutor that u . s . a . change into nonetheless one step ahead and nonetheless had superiority over ever different usa. hence, each body hates us. we haven't any proper to bypass into each usa and say, nope, you won't be able to have uranium. Nope, no area application for you. you should loose this new child from detention middle. it is as a lot as them to make certain what they opt for, no longer the US telling what they could and can want to't have. Thridly, why might want to i opt to spend billions of tax payer funds to objective to seize what appears to be like a mythical creature purely informed in biased, propagandisized, information. I mean, come on, seem at each of the topic matters we've the following in our own usa. Homeless, Social safe practices, well being care, new child education, i'd quite spend my funds on some man or woman that lives next door, than some man or woman who lives 0.5 way accross the international. I mean, that is not any longer to eliminate from those poorer little ones in puzzling paintings in different international places and those with AIDs in Africa. even if it is to eliminate those ineffective "responsibilities" that we purely ought to do. Bin weighted down hasn't even performed any harm contained in the terrific 5 or so years. Why problem about him? finally, tutor some comprehend. Iraq isn't a rest room. human beings there, are purely like human beings the following. they're only a lot less fortunate. You get to rouse to a healthful breakfast, a computer, a motor vehicle, and also you're taking that with no interest. at the same time as those in Iraq awaken to, gunfire, extra hearth, burning homes, explosions, intense probability. etc.
