It is a mess, & however well intentioned it was to go in there (I am being generous) people now matter what country you are from, don't want America as an occupying power!
How do I know?
Well true, I haven't talked to every American, but I have seen "Polls" & we as Canadians have troops in Afghanistan & a majority of Canadians want our troops home.
They were going to come home 2009, but that was extended to 2011.
not picking on ya buddy, as a matter of fact i just watched a coming home parade for one of our gurard units, great that they are home, but the fight must be fought, the majority of people i know want the job to be done, then we are out, by the way, we are still in germany, japan and korea, what is that now 60 yrs, dt

We supposedly already "won" the war in Iraq years ago. That position, and yours my friend, are made by people who don't understand the nature of the situation in Iraq or civil war in general. The United States cannot win the Iraqi Civil War (even though we started it). That is something we should have learned in Vietnam.
you dun drunk the democrat coolaid.
No one has EVER Suggested that we have "won"
and Iraq is not a civil war. and the lesson we learned in Vietnam is that when liberals cry we end up loosing.
we lost vietnam because of cowards like ted kennedy and others who WANTED to loose.
NOT because it was a so called civil war.
the situation in Iraq is very much winnable. the majority of Iraqis want us there and want a free society and know they can get it with out help.
but we have too many liberals who smell power and have decided they can get power by loosing.

I believe there will be pressure to bear on him to not do that from powers that be.
However, a majority of Americans want the troops home, are all Americans stupid?
I don't think so, they just don't want another Vietnam where the troops are there for 13 plus years with a great cost in lives while still losing the war.
egads.

ron my friend for the record, i want victory and then the troops home, but i am also convinced that the iraqi people dont want peace, if they did they would rise up and fight the terrorists among them and it would be done, dt

And there is pressure in those countries for the troops to leave as well.
They also are not there as an occupying power.
Don't you think that there should be a push toward Iraq sovereignty?
