EXACTLY!!!! I have alot of friends in the Marines and 3 in the Army and most of them said it was hell in the beginning but their 2nd tour it wasnt America but it was a hell of alot better than in 2003.
We would leave, if the Iraqi Government voted for us to do so. They have had this vote multiple times but they keep voting for us to stay.
And you are right, the leaders of these Insurgents either ran away or are dead; of course there is one here and there but the majority of them. As a simple ratio BASED ON FACT, since 2003, for every American that has died in Iraq, 40 Militants have died, thats 1:40 in death tolls.
If people think going into Iraq, destroying their Military, taking over the country, capturing their leader, setting up a new government is loosing, and killing 40 enemy soldeirs for every one of our own lost since the war began; then what is their idea of victory?

I was shocked when I got back from Iraq in March 2005, that the public was being told by those 'commie libs' in the news that we were winning. We were not winning at the time, and we are not winning now. It is merely a 'tie' if you please. We are not losing any battles. We are kicking the s..t out of the insurgents, but the insurgency is growing. There are a lot of insurgents from Iraq, as well as many other Middle Eastern countries, that are fighting in Iraq. Our casualty levels are beginning to rise again. Unless you are willing to put on the uniform and go fight your self, then you need to SHUT UP! I am tired of seeing these neo-cons, that are too good to serve, criticize something they selectively believe. If you did serve, thank you for your service, whether it was in the war or any where else.

wow, you should have provided sources.
much better than media reports?
lmao.
totally missed the Iraq Study Group report didn't you? see, we have only been acknowledging 1 out of 12 attacks. even if people were killed in the other 11. so, by that figure alone, iraq is 12 times worse than we report. further, when the report came out, our media failed to report on their under-reporting of attacks. they read other bits of the report to you on CNN, i assume they are the liberal commie media, but not that bit.
why does your media refuse to tell you that we do not give iraqi soldiers bullets? why does the media not mention that every day iraqi soldiers go into battle without ammo?
only in america could this kind of reporting be considered liberal.
the insurgency gets weaker each day, yet the rate of attacks always increases? how is that possible?
killing iraqis is not the goal dumbass, if we have, as every respected medical journal has stated, killed 400,000 to 900,000 iraqis we do not win when we get a million, or even ten million. moron. the goal was never to kill iraqis so how does that indicate that we are winning?
lmao.
did your momma drop you?

?? nicely, I furnish you this, you researched your question. So I definately appreciate you for going with the help of the difficulty. and that i checked for accuracy (on a number of it, now not all) too. good procedure!! I have a pair problems with this even although. a million. you're comparing apples and oranges. each and each conflict is unique. Our WWII losses may have doubled if we did not drop the bombs. might want to we remember doing that now, as Nixon evidently did for the period of Vietnam? 2. save in options "undertaking executed"? replaced into that the end of the conflict? Technically, we are not in a conflict superb perfect now. possibly that's why the dems are upset. what's the duty in Iraq? First it replaced into once WMD's. Then at the same time as that grew to change into out to be a bald-confronted lie, we shifted to "isn't it larger now that Saddam isn't in power?". After that, it replaced into once "we would favor to grant stability until eventually a authorities is formed". All that has been performed. So, what's next? what's the duty? Oh, now we favor to attend until eventually the Iraqi army is as a lot as task. BTW, consider how Rumsfield demanded that the Iraq army be disbanded? would it not now not were larger to maintain them in service? 3. have you ever requested the mamma and papa of #2,582 on your stat sheet about how they imagine? you're lacking the finished element of the communicate with the help of technique of targeted on "deaths", and showing us that that's not truly that risky. The element is, we are stuck, such as Vietnam and Korea. at the same time as are the troops coming residing house? We though take care of 30,000 plus (i trust, imagine free to good me if i'm incorrect) in South Korea. yet our troops in Korea at the on the spot are not death. Iraq troops are. And, the democrats ask, WHY? It has not some thing to do with death costs, besides the indisputable fact that why we are over there, what's the duty?

Yes the media has a definite agenda. There sole purpose is to embarrass the President. Most people with any intelligence know what the media is up to and ignore them. This is shown in the loss of subscribers, and that news paper reporters are now ranked lower than used car salesman and lawyers.

If things are getting better in Iraq why are western politicians too terrified to announce their visits in advance.
I'll believe things are getting better when I see Bush or Blair strolling around the streets of Baghdad with just the local police to protect them.

The media wants to sell advertising, bad news sells papers and radio/tv spots .
Have you heard of even 1 unit being overrun, wiped out ?
It hasn't happened .

Far from chaotic? How many civilians are dead? It's over 100,000.
"So if it's grave and deteriorating and we're not winning, we are losing," Colin Powell, Dec 17, 2006
Bush has conceded we are not winning.
The current secretary of defense has said we are not winning.
Maybe the "liberal commie media" has been right this whole time, and the AM radio armchair generals don't know what they are talking about.

Of course the media has an agenda. Stay away from them. Stupidity and tunnelvision are highly contagious.
