If the US pulls out of Iraq what kind of message will that send to the terrorists?

Answer 1

It says that our so called political leaders have no guts,determination or pride,

They remind me of the kid who cryed every day at lunch time,a bully took his lunch money cause he was too scared to fight.

The ragheads own the left,have them by the teenie weenies and won't let go.

Answer 2

All US intelligence agencies now agree that the US invasion of Iraq has created MORE terrorists. Every month we stay, the more Iraqis turn against us. Every Iraqi we kill has family and friends who then turn against us.

We killed between 2 and 4 million Vietnamese trying to bring democracy to that nation, and all we accomplished was uniting the Vietnamese people against us. Then we pulled out of Vietnam, and look what happened. NOTHING! Today we have good political and economic relations with Vietnam, and while their government is not a democracy, they have improved human rights and civil liberties in their country over the past 30 years.

The terrorists view us as imperialists, just like the Vietnamese did. With American companies and foreign workers firmly in control of Iraq's economy (and 70% unemployment among Iraqis!), it's easy to see why. If we pulled out of Iraq, maybe we would send the message that we don't support imperialism.

Answer 3

It sends the message that there are now 150,000 more troops in America deployed at the entry points inspecting cargo containers and travelers. Real guys, in real camo, carrying real guns which they know how to use.

Now, bring it on.

Answer 4

If we were simply to pull out our troops now, with no effective government in Iraq, the terrorists would jump at an opportunity to set up a headquarter there.

Bush and his stupidity has put us in that situation. If we had simply struck at KNOWN terrorist camps and leaders with total devestation methods and left it at that then we would have sent a much more powerful message.

Since Iraq had no actual ties to any known terrorist organization nor did they actually have any WMD's and EVERY intelligence organization we used had cast doubts on reports to the contrary, we had no business invading Iraq to begin with.

Answer 5

Same as it always was.

Democrats do not have the determination, will or moral fortitude to do what is right, it will tell all enemies that AMerica will not fight to the end so we will become an easy target, on our soil.

Answer 6

That the greatest nation in history has given up on Liberty and has started down the path of decay.

Answer 7

That they were right all along, we have no long term resolve, our people are weak-minded cowards, that don't have the stomach - and therefore, our convictions mean nothing, our faith means nothing, we have no right to exist as cowardly infidels and we are thus marked for extermination.

But, hey, why should Nancy Pelosi lose any sleep over that?

Answer 8

You really think they need a message one way or another?

The terrorists will use our staying to recruit suicide bombers or they will use our leaving to do the same thing.

So why stay?

The terrorists will wait us out whether we leave in November 2007 or November 2107.

Answer 9

The United States is weak, divided, cowards and will be easy to conquer. They have no intention of leaving us alone no matter what the outcome of the war. Their stronger conviction is that the U.S. and Israel must be defeated and since they are brainwashed to believe they will be martyrs dying for the cause they will be hard to beat unless we unite ourselves, stop the internal fighting and all of us together decide our Country, our future, our children are worth putting politics aside and deal with the real issue.

Answer 10

It will be a sign that there will probably be a lot less Iraqi civilians filling up the morgues. BTW, I'm still trying to figure out who exactly are the terrorists we are fighting over there.
