Accelerate the training of the Iraq Military and provide them with a real Air Force, Tanks and complete equipment. Have the Arabic Nations form a National Security Force to assist the new government. Create a exit strategy that called for removal of all US troops except for basic support, Hospitals, Elite forces to continue to train. Reengage the world from the UN level and make Baghdad a neutral city. Disarm the militias and use satellite properly to discover all the hidden bases hidden all over the city. The lesson learned here is that we need to stop Policing the world and focus on our own interests. Poverty is growing at a alarming rate, we are destroying the planet with Oil and it's uses. Global warming has taken over the world and here we are still pouring billions into Iraq? It is a hopeless cause in many ways and I think that we need to learn that are way is not the only way. The war lost all momentum and purpose when our Generals allowed us to get bogged down in guerrilla warfare with insurgents
The goal was to eliminate a threat and pending threat. Instead we are now spreading democracy and rebuilding a entire nation? Thank Bush for no Social Security when everyone 35 and younger retire. The people of Iraq thank you too! Nothing against them. I would take 1/4 of the oil profits that Iraq is enjoying and make them pay their own way. Why do we have to? Bush has created a nightmare that has no clean fix. War is messy and people get killed. Why is it Republicans love their wars so much? He was too chicken to go to Nam but expects these young kids to give their lives. Screw that! I fought in the first war for a reason and we got out. We also did not go there alone.
You can draw so many comparisons to Iraq and what happened in Vietnam. Both ended badly. More troops will mean more dead servicemen and women coming home.
In a nut shell. I would get the hell out of there. There is no winning when you only loose!

Iraq has 18 providences. The Sunni triangle occupies part of 4 providences. Baghdad has the largest population mass of the country. That leaves 14 providences that should be brough back under the control of the Iraqi government fairly quickly as in a couple of months. I would put 10,000 Iraqi soldiers and 1 Iraqi police officer per 30 civilians in each of those 14 providences. In the Sunni triangle, I would put 20,000 Iraqi troops and 1 police officer per 30 civilians in the Sunni triangle. I would put an additional 20,000 Iraqi soldiers in Baghdad. The number of Iraqi Iraq soldiers needed should be finished by June 2007 according to the Iraqi president. This will require 870,000 police officers nationwide. So far the goal is 135,000 police and that is just not enough. That's 1 police officer for about ever 200 civilians. In the U.S., It's about 1 per 400 civilians, but the U.S. isn't fighting itself and have over a 25% unemployment rate either. No wonder there is a problem with holding "cleared" areas.

First, I would station troops on the border to keep rabble-rousers from Iran, syria, and other such countries out.
Second, I would significantly step up our efforts to train Iraqi soldiers
Third, I would make a significant aspect of Iraqi troop training be carrying out humanitarian missions throughout Iraq. This will help to strengthen the trust of the Iraqi people in the Iaqi army, and as a result loosen the support for secterian militia groups.
Fifth, I would have the iraqi government start a campaign to emphasise Iraqi nationalism over secterian alliegence. This would include public speaches, posters, and comercials. Further loosening the grip of sectarian militias.
Fourth, I would instigate a program of receeding troup deployment. This is not to be confussed with withdrawel or redeployment as troops will remain in Iraq, but their missions and movement will be slowly restricted to smaller and smaller sections of Iraq, the Iraqi government and military takeing control of these areas that we receed from. If it becomes absolutly neccesary, the controle of those areas will return to coalition forces, but only if controle has been lost by the Iraqi government forces.

Since our politicians (all parties) only respond to their most pressing lobbyist and rarely go outside party line on such important issues, the question has to be looked at with extreme logic.
We invaded Iraq on the assumption that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction. Then, fanatical islam saw the invasion as a good place to continue their cause.
Since one has nothing to do with the other and, weapons of mass destruction were not found ,logic says we should leave. I would say, leave but don't go far away. If the new Iraqi government gets into trouble and wants our help by asking for it through the UN then, like a good neighbor, we should with equal coalition forces help them remedy their immediate problem(s).
If no consensus can be made for with-drawing, we should drop one of our more deadlier thermal nuclear devices on a large barren part of the desert with a message: "Stop the Madness", your ignorant SOB's.

this can basically be one among many comments in the previous some thing is finalized. besides, a troop withdrawal doesn't advise we are leaving Iraq completely. we can nonetheless be inquisitive about preparation Iraqi troops and operations adverse to Al Qaida. Even the Democrats approve of that. we are no longer likely everywhere for decades to come back, that i'll guarantee you.

Basically its like this, we cant leave, but we cant stay in. We have to slowly pull out gradually just a few soldiers a day. If we stay in, we will be giving bush more power, which if we give him too much more he will take advantage of it and destroy our country that our forefathers put so much time into creating, but if we pull out immediately, al queada and other terrorist organizations would immediately gain too much power and attack us, destroying our contry as well :) hope this helps

Kill the terrorists. That's all we need to do. It's the reason we're there, so I don't see why we're not allowed to do it.
