In Iraq the resistance from the terrorists against the US army seem to be losing and they seem to have no help from their God they call great. If this situation continues, once should doubt whether the resistance carried out is right. For any death of the enemies some or many of their own countrymen suffer death or injuries. Even the US people themselves through their political system cannot succeed to get pullout. How long can the Iraqi people suffer. Is God on their side? If it is so, then the terrorists should be now fighting in the open. How would God allow them to fight like cowards to commit killing indiscrimately?

great question. Its amazing that everyone actually think we are losing this war. The liberal media has painted a nice picture that is rallying what pussy terrorists there are left to make a bomb and turn and run.

I think you dont know the definition of a terorrist is.
There may be many definition but generally it is agreed that it is one who uses violence or intimidation to change policees or government.
So those who defend them thelves and their country from invaders are not terrorists but the invaders them selves. So iraqis have the right to defend them selves and remove the occupiers be it american, british, other states etc.
U cant say that those who object to the polices of america are terrosists or else more than half the worlds population will be terrorists.
As for whos side god is on. It is not important, life is a test and if you follow gods rules then you will go heaven and if you dont folloew them then you will go hell, so he will put even the most faithfull in great tribulation be it the slaughter of their family by occupiers. God loves those who do good and spread it and hates those who opress, kill and spread evil.
Dont believe what the media is saying, each side is claiming that they are victorious. Militarily it is the americans, but it is not really a military war but a war of ideas which the west is loosing to so they result in violence. It is the alternative to the idology of capitalism that is Islam that the west fears coz it will mean they wont be in control of the worlds resources such as the oil in the middle east or supress countries from growth so that they will allways remain on top.
I think you have to look at the bigger picture

One problem we face is that even though we are winning or beating the tar out of them at this point (some people argue we aren't winning), we are dealing with a people locked in the concept of "Imshallah". Roughly translated that means "the will of Allah". It is almost a fatalistic approach to life. Allah can will people to live or die arbitrarily and they can't do anything about it. The radicals will use this to recruit more to their cause by pointing out that Allah is allowing them to die/lose because not enough Muslims are taking part in the Holy Jihad against us Infidels. (Remeber, Allah has to be appeased, there is no doctrine of Grace in Islam.) It is almost imposible to win a war against the Imshallah mindset without completely eradicating those who use it to justify an ever widening circle of atrocities and violence.

Just like Cheney said "we're turning the corner" oh yeah, that was two years ago and they're now killing our brave young men and women at a faster rate than ever.

Seem to be losing? When they have started to kill more Iraqis than American soldiers lately, I would say is a sure sign of defeat.

I really doubt God would try to help them after they fight like cowards. They strap bombs to pregnant women and children, they fire from behind their families, they target civillians in battle, and could care less about anyone besides themselves; any God that condones that doesnt exsist.

They're losing?
So why the need to send 21k more troops?
