I want to present a hypothetical here. I know this would not happen, but I'll offer a compromise, the compromise to the Democrats in the Senate and in the House. I will agree to pull our troops out of Iraq if you Democrats will agree to my conditions after the defeat, and here are my conditions to agree with you on a pullout.
When Al-Qaeda celebrates after we pull out, after we admit defeat, every TV image of Al-Qaeda celebrating must be a split screen. On one side, Al-Qaeda celebrating; on the other side, I want pictures of Harry Reid and Chuck Schumer and Carl Levin smiling and congratulating themselves.
When Al-Qaeda slaughters Iraqis after we pull out and we see the pictures of this on TV, every TV image must show a split screen. On one side of the screen, the bloody slaughter scenes; on the other side of the screen, pictures of smiling Harry Reid, smiling Chuck Schumer, smiling Carl Levin congratulating each other with big laughs.
When Al-Qaeda takes over another village, ransacks another village, another town, another city, after we pull out, on one side of the screen, I want desperate villagers running for their lives. On the other side of the split screen, I want pictures of smiling Harry Reid, smiling Chuck Schumer, smiling Carl Levin, shaking hands and embracing and congratulating themselves.
When the American flag burners in the Middle East start burning their flags and the president and vice president in effigy, I want one side of the split screen to show every image of that happening. I want the flag burners. I want the characters of Bush and Cheney being burned in effigy, and on the other side of the split screen, I want pictures of a smiling Harry Reid, a smiling Chuck Schumer, a smiling Carl Levin embracing, shaking hands, laughing and congratulating themselves.
I think that's a reasonable compromise, and I've offered it here in all sincerity. If the left will agree to this compromise, I will join them in calling for a pullout from Iraq.

The main news is totally the ones lost with Iraq. What they don't tell you is that Iraq has a democratically elected government, schools, 500,00 cops and soldiers and positive net immigration (and not just guys trying to kill Americans) and birthrate (unlike Iran which is negative on both counts). Also 50% of Iraq would be placed in the hands of Iraq by the end of the year and probably 75% of Iraq will be in Iraqi hands by the second quarter of next year. The Iraqi president thinks the U.S. will be in iraq for 3 years (2009). Most of the fighting is in the capital and the Sunni Triangle. That's about 5 cities in a country the size of California. The rest of Iraq is fairly peaceful.

Man, you sure know how to put things in perspective.
Because saving the lives of many of our troops that would surely die on foreign soil is a bad idea. Unless of course we can compare some people against the war, and for keeping our soldiers alive to terrorists.
And for the 1000th time, Al-Qaeda and Iraq had no connection, prior to us stepping into Iraq and causing them to hop the borders so they can fight us in Iraq. Invade Saudia Arabia you war monger, they're coming from there.

This war, say analysts, is about power and oil. It's about control of the Gulf states by means of strategic Iraq and, by extension, a final post-Cold War shakeout to give the U.S. more economic clout over China and Russia by controlling the oil spigot.

Al Qaeda does not exist and never has
http://www.islamdefenders.com/no_alqaeda/alqaeda_doesnot_exist.htm
The basic truth is that Al Qaeda does not exist and never has. Al Qaeda is a manufactured enemy who was created by the Bush Administration in order to have an excuse to wage a war for the control of the world’s oil resources.
Did an American even hear the words "Al Qaeda" before 9-11? Or were we told that its alleged leader Osama Bin Laden has family who themselves have personal business relationships with George W. Bush’s family and that both families had financially profited considerably from the "War on Terror"?
http://pilger.carlton.com/print/124759
The threat posed by US terrorism to the security of nations and individuals was outlined in prophetic detail in a document written more than two years ago and disclosed only recently. What was needed for America to dominate much of humanity and the world's resources, it said, was "some catastrophic and catalyzing event - like a new Pearl Harbor". The attacks of 11 September 2001 provided the "new Pearl Harbor", described as "the opportunity of ages". The extremists who have since exploited 11 September come from the era of Ronald Reagan, when far-right groups and "think-tanks" were established to avenge the American "defeat" in Vietnam. In the 1990s, there was an added agenda: to justify the denial of a "peace dividend" following the cold war. The Project for the New American Century was formed, along with the American Enterprise Institute, the Hudson Institute and others that have since merged the ambitions of the Reagan administration with those of the current Bush regime.

First off who are you that we should care about your compromise? You are like the rest of us here nobody special
You complete neglect the fact that Al-Qaeda was not in Iraq when we went there and will not likely stay when we leave.
Why would Al-Qaeda slaughter Iraqis and rampage though villages? They are not in the Nation conquering business they are a terrorist organization.
And why do we ever care if nut jobs burn the flag to the images of the VP and President? Let the madmen rant what sleep do we lose over that? They are crazy leave it at that.

I am with you 100%. I have one more condition, the next time Al-Quaeda attacks New York because they will again, don't ask me for a dime. We here in the midwest have given our blood, sweat, and the best men we had to offer only so uptight liberal fakes could stab us in the back. The liberals hate this country and anyone who isn't like them. All you have to do is read enough posts. Liberals, don't ask my kind to stand up for you again because I no longer have the stomache for any liberal backstabber. I equate the liberals with Al Quaeda, they are my enemy as well.

I am 100% on your side on this. If we pull out now, we leave a lot of innocent people behind to suffer a dreadful, insured, fate. Much of it even worse than death.
I asked a similar question to this one not too long ago because, my concerns are identical to yours.

I find this sort of odd,all of the names you mentioned are Jewish??? now that their old Nemisis Saddam is gone are they wanting to get to Iraq and control the oil also? they already control and own our Monetary system , our news media, and most of our food supply, damn they sure have us by the balls , and now they want to gain control of the oil hmm,????and I forgot our political system,
the original Rothschild planned to rule the world 5oo years ago, in our history books before the Zionist gained control of our country, now his decendants own our Federal Reserve, also, do we surrender now or just wait ??
