What's the point in even fighting in Iraq anymore?

I mean really?

We're leaving the borders wide open and at this rate Mexico will own the United States in a few decades and will rule over us with an iron-fist. We'll then be refugees who've lost our homeland.

Not me.

Consider that the IRA was never militarily defeated, when the Brits had much better intelligence capacity than we do in Iraq and could speak the language.

How many (really how few) insurgents does it take to keep the country in turmoil and kill say several hundred Iraqis and several dozen troops a month? Maybe as few as 100, maybe 250?

How the hell are we ever going to capture/kill all of them, when for each one we kill there is another newly radicalized 18 year old taking his place?

How many ex-generals say the same exact thing?

It may work short term but the underlying issue of different religious groups wanting power will never be resolved.
The fighting will resume without complete dictatorship force.
The same as our soldiers are doing now.

One thing that might work is for Iraq to be divided into a several Countries. One for each Religious group to govern. The resources would have to be distributed equally to each Country.
That will never happen, though, because Bushy wants to control the oil resources.
Oh, but his ideas of throwing money into Iraq will break our Country and economy. How much more can we afford.

The war in Iraq is a war where you are fighting an unmarked enemy similar to that in Vietnam. Simply adding more troops to a situation where you are unsure who you are fighting is not going to aid the resolution of the situation.

Man power is useless when you have an invisible enemy. This is a whole new breed of warfare that needs to be fought in a new manner, utilizing intell and community involvement to stabilize a volatile situation.

good question, wish i will help you consisting of your project. i'd prefer to think of of myself as a conservative and dependable to the Republican occasion. As such, one would assume I believe the President purely on partisan traces. that's not authentic. usa of america as a universal inhabitants (government, civilian, and militia) made a mistake by using getting in contact with Iraq. inspite of what we now recognize, hindsight is 20/20. The President would desire to step up and take accountability for his mistake instead of tip-toeing around it. i visit confess with humility that I made a mistake by using helping the war interior the 1st place, and that i became into stupid. Taking accountability shows a better character, one I even have not seen with the Bush administration. A troop surge in Iraq now would do not something. This conflict and war isn't quickly forward, this is calculating in its covert nature. greater troops will purely enable a much bigger objective interior the form of an American Flag to be dancing around Iraq. What then, would desire to be accomplished? Iraq is a muslim state, and as such we would desire to recognize that and use it to a political benefit. the respond would be to get different Muslim countries in contact strongly with Iraq. Saudia Arabia, even Iran (even nonetheless their "President" is a mad-guy) to objective and wreck down lots of the Sunni-Shiite transformations that plague the conflict. If in line with possibility, Iraq could be circled into something to sell a Muslim "oneness" then there's achieveable for realtive stability interior the area. From what I understand, a super kind of the hatred in the direction of human beings is from our hypocritical distant places coverage (i.e. we provide you weapons sooner or later and then the subsequent call you the undesirable guy). Turning this around to a minimum of something that seems to hold a greater static coverage would additionally be good. wish I gave you some perception, best to you, and peace.

We cannot win in Iraq so long as we have a cowardly congress/electorate driving the money wagon. President Bush has the right idea but the newly elected house is too chicken to finish the job. JUST LIKE THEY DID THE FIRST TIME, THEY ARE RUNNING AWAY.

General Petraeus said military action won't solve the problems in Iraq.

Bush has no brains and no talent, so he'll stay his own course until he's wasted as much as he can and leaves office.

The solution of "throwing more money at it" only seems compelling to the wealthy elite when it is serves to enrich them.
