Tell her, you're just not worth it . We know you're in great danger and despite the fact that our country CAN help, our Congressmen and women have decided that you're just not worth it ? We'll be leaving soon and we wish you well, but we know that you'll be forced into a shuttered society , if you even live to see it . Same goes for your children, . . . . .they're just not worth it ?!?!?
Could you look into a Mother's eyes and tell her that ?

Your question shows exactly why we must stay the course in Iraq! You put the situation over there in such clarity that I cannot believe anyone would disagree with you.

I can look into an Iraqi mothers eyes and say I'm sorry but we thought we were doing the right thing ! As most of the world has known and as we are just beginning to see, our president misled us !
I'm sure this is an answer you did not want to hear because Mr alphabet answered your question with the truth that made your question none sense ! Try and accept others opinions(not that you have to agree ) before you talk about helping others !

As a life-long Liberal, I resent you trying to embarrass us in this manner.
I wouldn't want to tell an Iraqi mother she wasn't worth it, but she should understand that it's just so darn hard fighting these terrorists. My wife and I wanted to go to a really fun Global Warming Conference in Helsinki, Finland, but due to the Iraqi war, the dollar is so weak that I don't think we can attend.
Can't we just have some sort of fundraiser for the good Iraqis, you know, the ones who don't want to overthrow their government?
Some dumb Conservative tried the same stunt you are pulling now. He tried to confront me in front of my colleagues about what the consequences to our country if we don't keep the fight over there on the terrorists' turf. How the hell am I supposed to know? I'm not a politician!

About the same as I can look into an Americian mothers eyes when she is being told that her child is coming home in a body bag because people who dont want us in their country destroyed her childs life. Or looking in to a Americian Mothers eyes and having to tell her that no we cant help feed her starving children because all the money is going to try to rebuild a country that is bent on destroying itself.

A few weeks ago the U.S. state department performed a poll in Iraq, and, the majority of Iraq's citizens wish for the troops to leave.

I would never be able to look into the eye of an Iraqi mother and tell her "...I am sorry about the death of your kids and husband. We thought Iraq had WMD...."
but I bet a lot of Christian Americans would be glad to just have an opportunity to spit at her face because God would have done the same to non-whites.

I could
tell her that she is safer now under the protection of the US then under Saddam
tell her about the great things that are happening now in Iraq

No, but then again I'm a Republican so I don't go for the easy bail out fix.
