Non of the brits and most of the Americans don't think it is wrong to pull the troops out of Iraq.

Who cares. they weren't really doing anything in their part of Iraq anyway. The Iraqi Shiites, who the Brits were watching, aren't really a problem it's the Iraqi Sunnis in the north & west where US troops are that are the major problem. If the Brits had been where the US is they would have cut & ran a long time ago because they would have had so many more causlities. Blair was just helping out Bush by showing his support by sending in British troops but he knew that the British troops would be in any real danger in the Shiite section of Iraq.

Truth is, they are cutting back troops in Iraq where they are no longer needed and deploying more troops into Afghanistan where the Taliban seems to be resurfacing.
Of course the part about increasing their troop strength in Afghanistan just doesn't carry the negativity that the media seems to thrive on - so it didn't get reported with any where near the extent that "The Brits Are Pulling Out Of Iraq" did - and that headline wasn't even entirely true.
So, tell me again why you don't think the liberal media has an agenda.

The pullout has been overstated by the liberal media. The brits plan to pullout 3000 troops by the end of 2007. That is 9 months away.

There is nothing "wrong" with the Brits in pulling out or Iraq. They have simply had enough of the Bush camp lies and realize that the only moral stance toward Iraq is to get out and let the Iraqi people sort it out.

I think it's the Brits business. The British have demanded their troops be brought home and it is being done.
Too bad Bushie doesn't pay attention....he's gonna lose his job....just like Tony Blair is being forced to resign.

If anyone would pay attention - they ARE NOT PULLING OUT!! They are sending troops to Afghanistan. The Basra region is far more stable than the area currently patrolled by U.S. forces.

Wrong how? Every state does what it feels is in its best interests. Britain has decided that being in Iraq is not in their best interests any longer (and probably never was). The U.S. might do well to do the same.

That's up to the British. Not us.
