We gave the Iraqis a democracy. Why not let them use it. Why not let them vote on whether or not the U.S. should stay in Iraq. If they say NO, we leave. If they say YES, we stay. Any bets on the outcome of such a vote??

Sounds reasonable to me, so it probably won't happen.

Do you mean let their parliament vote or let the citizenry vote about the American occupation? I would be extremely interested in the outcome of the parliament having a vote on this. I believe the average Iraqi citizen would want the U.S. there for a while.

Isn't voting part of the democratic process? I think they SHOULD vote. Voice can be very progressive. All sides (belief systems) in Iraq would be working together for the first time. I am sure that all sides just might like the U.S. out of their country.

We should do that but they are going to vote us out. That is the problem, though I'm against the war is not convenient to leave immediately. I think we need to partition Iraq and split the oil revenues between them while leaving some soldiers to protect our interests.

definite, i visit't bear in mind in which state I stay, yet I do bear in mind I smoked a number of the best ten in my lifetime at present. Thirty years of smoking, under no circumstances an vehicle coincidence, under no circumstances arrested, under no circumstances dedicated against the law to get it, under no circumstances raped any little previous women and that i respected my mum and dad. it really is merely yet another form of prohibition to which i do not subscribe. the in hassle-free words reason it really isn't any longer criminal is merely too many of the former institution are nevertheless in authorities, the drinkers.

Bad idea! The Palestinians voted Hamas in their government. Now what can one conclude from that?

Good point, and I agree whole-hearted! Let them flex that democratic muscle a little bit and make their own future.

I think that is a great idea, but those in power ( like Halliburton for example) are not going to go for it, because this whole thing is about oil, and no bid contracts, and $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ to them, and they care about nothing else!!!!! *sm*
