Basically America is trying to stop the violence in Iraq and change it into a democracy,in my opinion they are trying to help them....also considering there is a civil war between the Sunnis and Shites.

Let's break it down:
WHAT ARE THEY DOING NOW? Trying to stabilize the region, stop the sectarian violence, and find more al-Qaeda operatives.
ARE THEY HELPING? Depends on who you talk to. Right now the sectarian violence is so bad that many people believe it doesn't matter when we pull out -- we'll be back in another 10 years or so fighting another leader who will probably be just as bad as (or worse than) Saddam Hussein.
ARE THEY FIGHTING? Our troops are fighting, but they're having a hard time of it because the enemy does not abide by the Geneva Convention -- they don't dress in uniforms that would make them identifiable as combatants (they almost always wear regular Iraqi clothing), they attack using weapons designed to cause unnecessary suffering, they use innocent Iraqis as human shields, and they hide soldiers and weapons in hospitals and mosques because they know we won't bomb them. This should tell you who the REAL terrorists are.
ARE THEY FINDING? Yes, the Armed Forces has already found several stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction that don't exist according to the mainstream liberal media, and they have already captured or killed over 200 al-Qaeda operatives in Iraq that supposedly don't exist either -- believe the Clinton News Network or the Communist Broadcasting Service if you like, but I'll take the words of my colleagues who have actually BEEN to Iraq on tours of 120 days or more and have actually SEEN the WMDs and the al-Qaeda terrorists WITH THEIR OWN EYES over any news organization that obviously has a Bush-bashing anti-war agenda.

People oppose the war because they have never personally experienced what it's like to live in a dictatorship headed by a monster like Saddam. If the war is near successful they never will.

First of all, you need to clarify who you mean by 'they'.
If you are referring to the U.S. troops in Iraq, their purpose for remaining over there is to help maintain peace until they new democratic government is able to handle their own problems.
Right now, the troops go on regular patrols to scout out terrorists, escort engineers, technicians and builders that help to construct roads and bridges to facilitate movement, etc. The troops only fight if engaged by the enemy.

We are most definitely losing this war-Even Bush knows this now ( took him forever to actually use that little brain of his)But people in congress are supposedly working out a strategy that will help us get out and help rebuild-but in order to help and rebuild you are looking a cost of about a trillion dollars within a four year period-that's the truth ,analyst in Washington are estimating about a trillion or more in helping to rebuild and secure Iraq

You say "War", but who are we at "War" with?
Iraqi's?--Nope, there at their request to help keep things stable while they try to develop!
Sa'udi Arabia?--one of our strongest allies!
Kuwait? Lebanon? Egypt? Turkey? UAI'S? Qatar? Bahrain? Libya, Morocco, Algeria, Amman?---NOPE!!!!
A trouble making Ferret and his bosses the Iranian Theocracy supporting radical Shia clerics all over the place? Supporting Sunni Ha-mas, Al-Qaida, and Taliban?
Hiding behind the Sunni leaders of Syria while they offer safety and protection to Iranian supporters?
I would have to say they are standing around in Iraq and now Kuwait getting ready to finally give some real ***** a goodbye they justly deserve!!!!!
Hey, Ahmadinejad--We are about to be leaving Iraq and Kuwait-BUT, I think it might not be as joyful for YOU as you hoped!
Bye-Bye!!!!!
