What a bunch of double-talk mumbo-jumbo, bullcrap. The Iraqi government will fold within days of our leaving. President Bush isn't going to listen to the pawn he installed, he won't even listen to Patraeus unless the general says we need to stay. Our President has staked his legacy on Iraq, we are staying as long as it is humanly possible under his leadership. Let's face facts, the green zone isn't safe, Baghdad is a death trap and their government is about to take a month of vacation. I say let's leave while they are on vacation. They can have what's left when they come back.

1st, get the facts straight. This is not a war. This is a police action. A war is fought by the military-no holds barred-no political correctness-total objective is to win at all costs. We are involved in a political police action that is run by the politicians and controled by the liberal media. Wars are won--police actions are never won but are for or against votes!!! USMC 60-68

How many years training has the iraqi army had by now anyway?
Do they give phd's in jumping out of troop carriers?
(or are the U.S. using mercinaries - instead of training the iraqi people, and have they outsourced litteraly everything to give americans - not iraqies - jobs, to the detriment of iraqs future - and independence)

you will in no way be waiting to have victory devoid of first retaining a state of conflict exists. conflict replaced into in no way declared. we are staying now contained interior the hopes of helping to create the 2nd working democracy contained interior the middle east. it particularly is the main substantial difficult because of the reality of attempting to get the three Islamic sects to supply up killing one yet yet another off, and the situation the oil is.

This is a very positive sign. I still believe that Bush will keep us there until they (The Iraqi Army) are good and ready. My guess next spring.

I hope so, we could arm them to the teeth, give them all our armored vehicles and hope for the best. Seems like a good plan to me. Sure beats staying the course. Maybe even give trusted iraqi unts air support (and hope they don't use it to attack their rival sect).

very difficult to answer this query. The entire mess created by the invasion by USA will leave a big vacuum when they leave.

Dream on. It's not going to happen and I don't care who's pandering to who. The 'war' might end, but we'll be there for many decades to come.
