I have 2 sons in the military. Both take the position that the U.S. needs to stay in Iraq and not leave. I asked them about their children growing up fatherless, and they replied that they would rather their children be fatherless then to lose their basic freedoms, and that they are willing, ready and able to give their lives so that other people in different countries could have freedom. As a mother I totally disagree with them, BUT AS A AMERICAN, all I can do is support them, their decision, our troops, and know that OUR country is doing the right thing, even if some Americans don't realize it yet.
Yes, I do know what is going on over there. Their father has already served two tours in Iraq.
EDIT TO D- If people like my sons did not value freedom enough to give their lives for it,,,do you realize that YOU WOULD NOT BE FREE TODAY. SOMEONE HAD TO DIE TO GIVE YOU THESE RIGHTS. JUST HOW DO YOU THINK WE GOT THEM? AND YES, PEOPLE FROM OTHER COUNTRIES DID HELP US WIN OUR INDEPENDENCE, YOU EVER HEAR OF FRANCE? So your argument holds no water for me.

How can an argument be made against such a great political mind as yourself.
Who are the "ppl" you are talking about? Iraq citizens? Well, if you look at the numbers currently it is somewhere in the range of 10-15 Iraq's for each American life. Do you think that number will increase, or are you speaking about American lives being threatened by terrorists? Iraq could very well be a safe haven for terrorist, I will give you that, but the financing of the terrorist have been greatly reduced, it is unlikely that we will be touched by the same violence that we are subject to today.
What about the standard of living for the Iraq's now, they don't have water and power in most cities. Impossible to build a structure for self reliance. And what are we doing years after to fix those issues?
I am not saying that there is no support for our troops, I'm not saying we leave their "*****" in the wind, and I am not saying we cut and run.
What I am saying is when does enough become enough. When will we know peace? What are you saying? No matter the cost, we fight on. No matter how many lives are effected, not just the dead and their families, what about the wounded,
what of the scars beneath the flesh? Would you give as much? Because I have.
Think brother, before you start talking about issues you don't fully understand.

Any that die would not be Americans. I don't give a rat's behind about the people over there. I do care about our people. A sensible withdrawal now that the war is over and we are merely occupying the country is not cutting and running. If things are going as well as the right says it is and hostilities are virtually over than it can't be cut and run because there is nothing to cut and run from . Did you ever consider the fact that the people of Iraq may not want a democracy? That is a strange form of government for people of the region. Democracy takes work, people need to participate. It is much easier to be under a dictator where someone else does all the thinking and deciding and all one has to do is as they are told.

The lack of know-how of a few conservatives does no longer quit to amaze me. Now lets see, it changed into envisioned that the total variety of demonstrators in all of Egyptian cities very last Sunday changed into round 7 million. on condition that the total inhabitants of the Gaza Strip is in easy words a million.5 million, and Hamas makes decrease than a million% of those, and on condition that the Egyptian border with Gaza has been sealed because the starting up of the Egyptian revolution, merely proves that your argument is only slightly of nonsense from someone who has no concept about the midsection East. bypass back to varsity before you embarrass your self added.

Thanks to the utter lack of planning and foresight of the Bush administration, this will be the result whenever we finally leave. So why stay there longer and have more American lives wasted just to put off the inevitable? How about we ask the UN to take over and send a peacekeeping force in, so we don't have to handle the whole load?

Do the neocons and republicans realize the tens if not hundreds of thousands of people who have ALREADY died because of our misguided actions.
First it was WMD, then it was Sadam, then it was liberating the people, then building a democracy. Now it is fighting al Qaida. We, the American people, were lied to as to why we invaded a country that posed no threat to us and we have been lied to ever since.
What ever happened to the "Coalition of the Willing"? I guess there aren't any countries left who are willing! Sounds like more "Shock and Awe".

People are going to die whether we leave now or ten years from now. We are holding back and an inevitable civil war in which people will die either way. We should have stayed out of there to begin with. Our troops are dying right now! We need to train the Iraqi officials and leave.

I am proud and glad of your sons, but they have it all wrong. Dying for another country's freedom is not the correct thing to do. I would not give my life so an Iraqi MAY have freedom in the end.
Who knows what the hell is really going to happen?

'cut and run'
Try thinking for yourself, rather than mindlessly parrotting what the most corrupt, hateful, stupid, ignorant sub-humans freaks say.
Committing more mass murder is committing more wrong, given that mass murder is wrong in the first place.
It's not insulting someone to not want them to be killed or maimed.
The people who sent them there weren't trying to bring freedom: Bush wanted to be a "Great" and "War" President in the history books, Cheney wanted to enrich Haliburton, Rumsfeld wanted permanent bases in the area.
It was never about freedom.
Do cons and repulicanes realize that mass murder, torture, rape, and theft are wrong?
Apparently not enough of them do.

40 years ago we heard the same crappy justification to stay in Vietnam. It is time to stop wasting American Blood. They don't want us there. We have become part of the problem. Losing more of our soldiers to justify the blood already shed is like lemmings jumping off a cliff. Stop take a breath, look at what is happening.
