This is what Bush says. Any truth in that?

They're probably going to 'come and try to get you' anyway because the US has been interfering in the Middle East for decades and has caused tens of thousands (conservatively speaking) of deaths, installed dictators, corrupt regimes and religious extremists in power to serve it's own political purposes and supported Israel's theft of land and mistreatment of the Palestinians. Fighting in Iraq just means spreading your resources thinly and giving them an open point of attack while doing nothing to protect the US, quite the opposite since the violence that the US invasion has unleashed has ruined many lives and provided ample fresh recruits. It's also ruined the US's international reputation making it harder to aquire assistance from allied countries.

Are they coming to get us now? It certainly wouldn't be difficult for them, the way we apparently let just about anyone come into the U.S. through Mexico.
Check out Richard Pape, who wrote a book on Suicide
Bombers called "Dying to Win."
These radical Muslims, these men feel they have no other weapon left. Using yourself as a bomb isn't something you do if you feel like your other plans are working. It isn't just Muslims who do this, either. Many groups of people have gone on suicide missions for their cause.
My belief is that no, "they" (whoever they are), will not "come and get us" if we leave Iraq. Every man who attacked us on 911 died in that attack. One of their major goals was accomplished, forcing the U.S. to pull out of Saudi Arabia; don't forget 15 of the 19 were Saudis. Bush is just using scare tactics to get what he wants, which is U.S. troops in Iraq to occupy those 14 permanent bases we have built and our 104 acre Embassy. Do you really think we would build 14 permanent bases if we hadn't planned on staying for years from the beginning? That fact alone proves it was a bunch of lies.
To this day, NOT ONE SINGLE IRAQI has come to America and attacked us. Can you name one? I can't. If they haven't done it by now, what makes us think they would if we left their country? That just makes no sense at all to me.
Iraq is not our business just because they have at least 10% of the world's oil there. I say we leave them alone and let them figure out how to run their land.

Sure. 5 million Muslim terrorists are waiting for us to pull out of Iraq so they can come here and beat the tar out of us. For some reason they are prohibited from entering the US until we leave Iraq. Oh, and one more thing: Santa Claus wanted me to let everyone know that he'll stop by your houses with presents on December 25.

Absolutely 110% true! If our troops are forced to come home without a definite win, they will follow them home and begin a slaughter never before seen inside American borders. There will be so many of them that nobody will be really safe nowhere. If the Dems have their way, we won't even be allowed to keep our guns so we can defend our selves, families, homes, schools, cities or anything else! As long as our troops are fighting them over there, we won't be fighting (many of them) here. See my question in "global warming" about "who thinks global warming is the most important thing to worry about?" to see their plans to conquer the world. I didn't make it up, It's what bin Laden has ordered the terrorists to do! That's the REAL thing we should worry about, not a stupid non-problem like alleged 'global warming"~

They respect strength and will go after weakness. Go ahead, pull out. Show the world we are wimps. But don't come crying to me when car bombs and such start going off all over the USA. Myself, I would cheer them taking a small plane and wiping out the Academy awards.
