that is not any longer interior the information because of the fact the government needs us to forget approximately approximately it. extra human beings might publicly oppose the conflict in the event that they knew the actual physique counts (over a million million Iraqi deaths as a results of invasion). extra human beings might publicly oppose the conflict in the event that they knew on the subject of the everlasting bases being set up. that is not any longer a conflict--that is now an occupation. If the information reported the reality for some days, everyone may well be on the DNC conflict protests in Denver. McCain grow to be lifeless severe along with his a hundred years--that's the plan. Ron Paul grow to be the only candidate who grow to be sparkling approximately finishing the conflict and he won the main suitable quantity of help from the troops. Does that no longer inform you something?

That the military will continue its failed strategy of "area warfare" (having units isolated in bases while the ground between the bases and the Iraqi borders are a wide open no-man's land).
I think we if sent more troops, or at least used the Iraqi troops to seal up Iraq's borders, and I mean sealed tight, the insurgency would dry up.
When you cut off the supplies of new bombs and conscripts, then the insurgency will only be as strong as it is right now, and will have to be whittled down to nothing over time.

My biggest concern is the politicians are running the war NOT the generals. This will only lead to failure. I was against the war BUT since we started it we have to finish it. After the job is done then we can point fingers and hold any "illegal" activity on the part of the "intelligence agencies" accountable for their deception.
OK bring on the thumbs downs. I know I will get a bunch for speaking the truth but, OH WELL. LOL

The foremost concern should be, standing up the Iraqi military.
The military has to be functioning, proficient, and in place, before the United States can withdraw.
Plus if the Iraqi government fails, the military can have a coup d'ete, and stand against Iran.

My biggest concern is the common man in Iraq. Who is just hanging like a pendulum between the PEACE KEEPERS and RELIGION LOVERS. And there is no escape.

my foremost concern:
That we start a war soon after we leave IRaq!
Certainly it will be a shorter one!
It will be an easier one. (to boost our national morale)
And hopefully this time... we'll be able to profit from it all!
Rebuilding the country we attack is KEY to the sucess of America going to WAR!
anyways... wouldn't buy any defense stock yet...
but soon!

Tehran - President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Tuesday the power of the United States was rapidly collapsing in Iraq and that Iran was ready to step in to help fill the vacuum.
"The political power of the occupiers (of Iraq) is being destroyed rapidly and very soon we will be witnessing a great void of power in the region," Ahmadinejad told a news conference.
"We, with the help of regional friends and the Iraqi nation, are ready to fill this void," he said.
