Our public education system does not stress enough importance on history. It is deemed boring, unimportant, and meaningless. Yet history holds lessons, mistakes, warnings, examples all from which wisdom can be derived. To make matters worse this country is proudly known as the United States of Amnesia. Not long ago did President Eisenhower warn the people of this nation of an epidemic , a cancer, growing within the goverment. But we did not heed his warning instead we forgat. 60 years later the cancer, the dangerous merge of Industry and the Military, has grown far beyond repair. From the shoes to the bombs from the forks the soliders use to even laundry service is controlled by a corporation. Even the training of Iraqi police officers is ultimately in the hands of a private company. Now ask yourself would it benefit the military and its heavyly backed private sector to end this war? With defense funding at levels well above the cold war, the recent establishment of North Com (a violation of Posse comitatus), ending the war would be recieving less which is undesirable to both the Military and its Industry.
As outlandish as it might seem to you now the war is not in Iraq but in our system of goverment. It has become a seperate entity thought to be distant, self sufficent, truthful, yet our elected officals including the President, who are to represent millions in one voice have come to be cluttered by their own ambitions and beliefs, our Military has grown exponentially along with the Industry it created. Overgrown military establishments are under any form of goverment inauspicious to liberty, and are to be regarded as particularly hostile to Republican liberty these are the words of President Gerorge Washington in his farwell address.
"Mission Accomplished" for me would be the recapture of our republic, were the people are actually represented, and that billions of dollars are not spent to expand our military and its over seas bases (over 430 worldwide) but spent instead for the general wellfare of its own people. The rubicon has been crossed but I believe it not to late to save this country I love so much from the fate of Rome.

But dont take my word for it, better yet never take anyones word for anything, do your own research, investigate, question, reason, this is all it would take to save this country.

Peace

Wow, that is a loaded question. I could give the standard Washington politician's answer ( or Bush's answer) "We'll stand down when the Iraqis stand up," but at this point I think it is next to impossible to feel that the mission will ever be accomplished. The only reason why the different sects did not fight over each before the U.S. invaded was because Saddam held it together with an iron fist. People were too afraid to speak up for there respective sects let alone bomb each other. I think the only way to even come close to resolving the problem is Senator Joe Biden's plan of dividing the country and sealing up the borders so terrorists can not cross over, but even that plan would be hard to implement. I think the Middle East has been screwed for a while and the Iraq War has made it worse. I just hope that I am old and gray when WWIII breaks out.

Major combat missions completed their mission. In reference to what your saying the mission will never be complete. That would be like saying mission complete in the USA. Countries everywhere have problems. Nothing is perfect. No one or thing is truly complete. Is France complete? Is Germany or Japan complete? The Democratic party is defiantly not complete. After the second coming of Jesus Christ and the battle of Armageddon the mission will be complete I suppose... Start thinking realistically and in optimistic fashion. A progressive thinking is what you need. Get rid of that destructive attitude, it will only cause you trouble!

Mission Accomplished = we are able to leave and Iraq functions successfully with a democrat society and free market. I, unlike Bush, don't care if that free market is capitalist or not which is why we are still there.

Bush in no way stated "challenge Acomplished". That became a banner in the historic past, and the challenge to take Baghdad became acomplished. He stated "major strive against operations were over" which became operation barren region hurricane. howdy vegan: an illustration is genuine,,,, BUSH in no way stated challenge ACOMPLISHED. Your reality "On might want to at least a million, 2003 Bush landed on military deliver to assert "strive against operations over. challenge executed". is incorrect! So now you opt for to regulate the challenge to violence, bloodshed and chaos ?
