Withdrawal from Iraq is the only way to save the lives of young American soldiers from being slaugthered by Islamic extremists who tend not to surrender their jihad.

It's actually time for most Americans to get off their mama's nipple and nut the hell up!!! Please take a close look at how many lives have been lost since we have been in Iraq! Then, take a big look at the numbers of Vietnam, Korean War, and WW2!! You tell me how we are actually doing these days.
We are not in Iraq right now because of Oil, and Bush is trying to make his Daddy proud by finishing off what he didn't!! It is because of the Danger the country did pose upon not just the US, but the rest of the World. Regardless of Weapons of Mass destruction or not, they were harboring terrorist and funding terrorist groups across the world. Plus, the people under the rule of Saddam were in desperate need of help, weather they said they need it or not. Us going in there and Liberating the Country is the best thing for it. The problem with doing such today is the Media and how careful with Bureaucratic bull Crap of Rules and Regs that stop the Soldiers and Troops from actually doing there job to get it done. They practically put our selves in a Stalemate. We are stuck taking two step forward and one step back! If you really want to help our troops and bring some home, then join the Service and do your tour over there to give somebody who's been there 3 or 4 times a break!!

I received this email the other day, I do not know if it is accurate:
INTERESTING STATISTIC...
Regardless of where you stand on the issue of the U.S.
involvement in Iraq , here's a sobering statistic:
There has been a monthly average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theatre
of operations during the last 22 months, and a total of 2,112 deaths.
That gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000 soldiers.
The firearm death rate in Washington D.C. is 80.6 per 100,000 persons
for the same period.
That means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in
the U.S. Capital than you are in Iraq .
Conclusion: The U.S. should pull out of Washington
While I do not agree with the war in Iraq, the soldiers know what is expected of them when they sign up and one killed is one too many as far as I am concerned. I also believe that many, many, many more innocent Iraqi people, including children, have been killed than the Americans. Bush has got to go!!

So right now there's civil war in Darfur in the Sudan and the liberals are all screaming that we should go in there and fix it.
SO....if we were to pull out of Iraq now and they have a civil war (which they would) how bad would it have to get before the liberals would scream that we need to go in and do something???

It's true its not that dangerous for them. How could it be? Those schmucks have the most powerful and expensive war machine ever created on the face of the earth supplying them, and they're deployed against amateurs using guerilla tactics.
I'm a lot more concerned about the waste of money. Especially since the whole mess is on behalf private industry.

More Americans are "slaughtered" each day in America, than each day in Iraq.

They are not mindless amoebas. They made choices that they believe in, and like it or not...it is THEIR lives to do with as they see fit. A better question would be how can we save our nation's credibility from those who think they know what is best, when in reality they don't have a clue?

I would agree we need to get out. We could those hundreds of billions of dollars towards America. People must understand, the middle east has been at war for THOUSANDS of years, there entire ideology and mentality will not change unless they all change there religion, which wont happen.

Bring them home and start recruiting Iraqis living in the USA to fight for their country.
