The violence in Iraq will continue -- as it will regardless of whether we stay or leave.
The factions in Iraq will continue to seek dominance, and either one will eventually rise to power or several will establish their own territorial power bases -- as it will regardless of whether we stay or leave.
Iraq will eventually be influenced by Iran -- as it will regardless of whether we stay or leave. In fact, the current Iraqi govt (the one the US is supported) is currently seeking alliances with Iran.
But we cannot leave tomorrow -- even if the order is given tormorrow, it will take 6~12 months for a full withdrawal.

I'm not from the U.S.A I'm from another country which has served in Iraq. I was involved in what we like to term G1 and then again in G2 and now back a couple of times with the ongoing "support". It will take a good 6 + months for all to be pulled out of Iraq however the country as it stands can't support itself and will fall into more of an uncontrolled violence free for all. We all need to support them but in a more qualified manner. Speak softly however have a heavy hand if required. Confidence within Iraq and opening up real dialog with the source of the various sectarian trouble spots.
Look at Somalia, went in cleaned it, went away it turned to rubbish, went back in clean again, left again rubbish. Speak softly and smile yet have the ability to back up your decision with enthusiasm and firepower if required.

The Iraqis will just continue killing one another without our help and helping them kill - until they get either get back their common senses or just get too tired and bored with fighting - just like Vietnam.
Can you imagine if the US didn't leave ietnam, how many more deaths would have occured and how long the Vietnam War would have continued - with probably some of Vietnam's neighbors involved and more killed? Just count the number of American soldiers' names on the Vietnam Memorial Wall in DC. Probably some of you wouldn't have been born if America didn't pull of of Vietnam. Probably John McCain wouldn't even be here today to keep popping off his mouthy bits!
If the radical al-Sadr Islamist pigs and their supporters should kill all the good Iraqi citizens, then the Coalition nations should just nuke off that nation. At least then, that would be seen as a righteous cause for getting rid of real radical Islamists and save the world from them.

It will be like WWI except the fighting will be in the Middle East. Even though Iraq is about 80% Shiite, 90% of all one billion Muslims are Sunnis. I would say an easy 40 million dead even though there are only about 20 million Iraqis.

The civil conflict would proceed unabated, and not lots would be distinctive. yet our troops have not got any company there interior the 1st place, in basic terms as we have no company implementing ourselves on the different u . s . a . governed with the aid of an evil despot under a dictatorship. If Bush extremely needs to hold democracy to the international, why do not we invade all the different international locations governed with the aid of madmen? by way of fact the different international locations have not got any truthfully-attainable OIL. If Bush extremely believes we will withdraw from Iraq with the aid of 2009, why is usa development the main important embassy interior the international on a 104-acre internet site in downtown Baghdad, overlooking the puppet Iraqi government which Bush and Cheney put in? by way of fact the united statesA. would be in Iraq till it has sucked each and every drop of OIL out of Iraq's sands. Why will Bush invade Iran earlier the spring of 2007? by way of fact the U.S. company pastimes choose all those wealthy fields of truthfully-attainable OIL. sure, i think of issues would ultimately get extra advantageous in Iraq if the U.S. wasn't there. ultimately, they may well be certain their modifications - extremely if that they had their OIL for use as a financial stalwart with which to prop up the rustic's financial equipment and offering cohesion and equality to all. -RKO-

Slaughter, multiple Genocide, a million voices being silenced at once, chaos, pain, holocaustic actions.
take your pick
Also, Eventually Iran would make a land grab for Eastern Iraq and Iraqi Kurdistan would go xenophobic and separate. What will be left would be the oil-less chaotic hump of Islamic hatred that will bite America in the butt in ten years

It was a bad idea ever going in in the first place. Pull out, and let them find another leader by themselves. It takes a dictator to rule such an unruly bunch (but I think it's wrong of us to use our western standards as a benchmark to judge everyone else). It's a shame Saddam can't be resuscitated!

Decode this lyrics " Who will save the world"
Ever wonder what will happen to all the little ones and those coming along the way all over planet earth?
Are we going to leave them all out there?
With "Kiss me goodbye"?
And let them be lost in space forever?
What do you think?
