One wonder the killing starts after ONE year after the invasion of Iraq.

If there were “bloody vicisious killing then we should saw that early days or weeks of US invasion of Iraq but it took one year to starts.

I think it’s transparent to most people that the Lefties really don’t care about dead Iraqs.

Our having left in the midst of on-going violence means that we are removing ourselves as the restrainer, and are passively unleashing even more death and destruction. A horrible conflageration would have descended onto Iraq if we ddn’t do what we did in 2007. We woud have been responisble for swooping into iraq, destroying its government, and then leaving.. leaving in the middle of bloody vicisious killing… with us leaving, the killing would have been so much worse, with much involvement from syria, lebanon, iran, and saudi arabia doing their best to keep the killing going.

We would been blamed for the barabaric rivers of blood that would be unleashed… ALL MUSLIMS around the world would witness the fratricide in Iraq. knowing that our weak society is the blame for that.

Does anyone think the Muslims and the Iraqis in particular would forgive us?

Hell they hate us enough now and we’ve done more to protect thier unworthy asses than they ever did for us.

But Leftists dont care. What they care agbout is having it be a disater so that can point to Bush and say “This is the result of him”

They do not care how many must die to achive their goal of destoying ush.. disempowwring me

It’s shocking just how cynical these Leftists are… they have no qualms about the deaths their policies woud result in. I lament thay have any posion of influence.

In terms of Bush’s signing a new “treaty” with Iraq, bravo for him. All this talk of leaving Iraq immediately is horribly impractical, unrealistic, and cruel. By cruel, I mean that we can’t leave the job half-done, and we can’t send the message that we are only out to bring the people of this world “freedom lite.” Freedom and democracy are meant to be complete packages. If our planning was rushed, and our execution not as polished as it could have been in Iraq, that doesn’t mean we also have to screw up the final exit. It’s time people stopped chanting anti-war slogans and actually thought about this from a global and human perspective. What is the cost of early withdrawal? Probably more bloodshed, and certainly a huge rallying cry and morale boost to the terrorists and the Middle-Eastern rogues states that fund them.

There is more to this war and rebuilding effort than people think. It’s far too easy to chant slogans about peace, and not think about the consequences. Peace is not always won without a fight…

That’s a big disappointment for me, but not nearly as costly in blood and treasure as the Bush team’s poor planning and/or lack of planning.

The only plan the Dems have has to do with obtaining political power.

Bush in fact has a big picture plan for the war on Islamic terror. It may or may not be the best, but the nuts and bolts failures in Iraq don’t negate its validity.

The cost in blood, so far, has been light.

Yet again, some people insist on sticking to a rigorously speculative viewpoint on Iraq “if Iraq goes well” indeed.

Iraq is going well. The question now is will the trend continue.

What about your “troll” Vince P?

dose he still “on the troll border”?

did crossed over with his “merely to taunt (or insult)mount the same tiresome ad hominen arguments over and over”?

I have a feeling this year is going to be a rough one.
