First off as someone that has been there, it helps out the morale when you know that your own country is behind. It also helps when your own media reports all the positive things your doing out there. Beleive me it hurts when guys like Harry Reid say we already lost the war, he should be tried for treason, it sends the wrong message to the troops, and makes our enemy stronger. If the enemy knows that the morale and our elected officals are caving in there gonna get bolder and stronger and up the amount attacks, with more road side bombings, suicide bombs, etc. because they feel the more violence they spead the weaker we will and break our will.
Military tactics, since your well schooled HIPPIE in military tactics. We made mistakes in the begining no doubt, it's a differant kind of war and we underestimated the Terror cells in Iraq. We would drive them out, annd keep pushing and not leave a proper security force behind while we were pushing forward, as we were pushing forward and on the offensive the terrorists just pulled a 180 and moved back in while we were gone. The troop surge is putting a stop to that since we can maintain a proper security force and establish 360 degrees of security.
Also it's tough out there, in the begining since we weren't sure who was friend or foe, the enemy doesn't dress in Military uniform they dress in plain street clothes and our own ROE'S hurt us in the begining.
Since you been there hippie I know you know all in Military tactics and the Iraq people, but news flash at the end of the day the good people of Iraq who have been ruled savagely by Saddam, want us to finish the job or at the very least make it place where they finally have some sort of civilized society, and never again be RULED BY THOSE WHO RULE WITH FEAR.
Those sanctions were placed by the U..N. on Iraq when Saddam decide to invade his neighbor we call that the Gulf War, Saddam also broke 17 U.N Laws for 17 years, and not using profits from oil to feed his people. Get your fac ts straight, and Clinton bombed him in 98 during operation desert fox with the same intell Bush had WHEN WE WENT TO WAR
I am taking about a civilzed society were you don't have to worry about that the leader of your Country is gonna MUSTARD gass you like Saddam did, Also a civilzed leader who doesn't kill you if you speak out against the GOV, think about it pot head, your on here everyday spitting Anti-Bush, Anti-U.S. crap on this site all day long, now I ask you, if you were an Iraq under Saddam rule would you be able to do that, NO you would be dead. Also Saddam straved his people, bruttally murdered them. I got more examples if you need them.
Now if the terrorists drive us out and win and gain a whole country like they had in Afgan do you think there gonna treat the people of Iraq kindly, or rule with fear, and kill those who oppose them, just like the taliban did in Afagan,

And why are those such as yourself feel that just because you are republican you are for the war and if you are democratic you are against it? And as for Karl it is best for him to leave now. The Presidents term is on the way out so I'm sure more will be joining him as they do with all presidents at this stage. Whats with the attack anyways?

The democrats and republicans will keep this war going as long as possible to collect bribes from the corporations making millions on it. They did the same thing in Viet Nam. The democrats control congress so don't think they couldn't stop it if they wanted. Like they promised. Both parties are in this together.

What the hell are you complaining about, most of those soldiers are conservatives because you liberals are to chicken sh*t to even think about joining in and seem to enjoy each and every death.
How many lives were lost in WWII, Korea and Vietnam, how about roughly 500,000, Vietnam alone Kennedy and Johnson would be responsible for about 56,000 deaths by your analysis.
I have provided a link to the US War Deaths, not that I expect you liberals to actually do any research.
Do the math, Vietnam lasted 16 years we lost an average of 3,500 US Soldiers per year, so far in the Iraq war we are losing about 1,000 US Soldiers a year.
The way I see it the Democrats are killing our soldiers 4 times faster than the Republicans, who the hell were you guys trying to please?

I've know more that were pisssed that they were beat out of the deployment by someone else in their group. The ones I've known have looked forward to going back and working to finish the job that was started. Let me ask you something. Is there any reason for the President to keep a political campaign adviser on his staff when he himself will be leaving the office in a little over a year? don't let your prejudice of The President make you cease to think or use your head at all.

If you are speaking of the Congress & Senate, my guess would be: depends on how long before they are up for re-election! If they just got into office, they might be willing to go along with thousands more dying so they can help corporate America, if their term is almost up, they will probably start talking about how we can get out of this mess about six months to a year before having to run for office again! They all seem to think we have short term memory or are idiots!

As long as the USA military is in Iraq, we can minimize the number of people killed there. Leave and so many more lives will be sent to their death.

Well when we win (and it will be with NO help of the democrats) then we will leave.
Keep in mind this is an ALL volunteer military.
Would you prefer we fight this from the air and not worry about collateral damage???? Then you will piss and moan about civilians being killed.
