Iyad Alawi, the former interim president of Iraq and an ally of our psychotic president admits that we are seeing the beginnings of civil war, as many in this forum have predicted. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...687910,00.html

Burning people alive and gangs of civilians with RPG's is generally a bad indication of a society's health and the degree of control the occupation forces have. The question now is: What is your threshold for tolerance of the apparent degeneration of the situation in Iraq? Do you think it's worthwhile to remain militarily engaged or should we abandon any hope of the ability of the US to stabilize Iraq.

They've proven beyond any doubt they're an uncivilized, beastly society. In terms of just Iraq, I'm fine with leaving and letting them kill each other. Unfortunately that does nothing to slow their goal of killing us too.

You know how embarrassing it is when I hear some French guy say just exactly that about my country with regard to this mess we've created and I have to hold my tongue because he's absolutely right, and he was absolutely right months before we even went in? You Bush voters gave the USA the the gift that just keeps on giving. Now, on top of everything else, the F'in French have a legitimate reason to look down their noses at us.

Don't point your finger at me, I moved on from Bush before others. I didn't vote for him in 2004, yet he was re-elected. So there's no "you" here, buddy.

Regardless, the question is where to go from here whether we were wrong is starting it before or not.

So you voted for Bush before you voted against him huh?

Gee whiz, where have I heard that before?

BelichickFan

Yeah because there were two elections, dip****. One is 2000, one in 2004.

I am not sure of the technical definition of "civil War", but what is going on in Iraq sure looks like it to me. Interesting the Marines have turned over Fajullah to the Iraqi Army, lets see how this turns out. My hope is well, so we can follow this plan to get our kids home soone.

1) The Iraq war started in 2003, 2004 was too late to correct your mistake. That's assuming that you did what you say. Voting in secret allows you to do whatever you want and say you did something else entirely when you find out that you blew it badly.

2) I'm sure you're also aware that there were two separate votes on that appropriations bill that your side refused to let Kerry off the hook for. One just to supply the troops with the stuff they needed and a second with all sorts of pork thrown in.

You guys are not giving yourselves en ough cvredit, not only did many on the left predict a "civil war" in Iraq. They have rooted for it, and made it possible.

Imagine what Iraq would be like today if the left in this country had not, from DAY ONE, (remember the crying about the Iraqi Museum) undermined the war effort and the troops. Keep telling yoursleves this is Bush's fault, so you can sleep at night.

Better yet, lets give credit where it's rightly due. Imagine what Iraq would be like today if Bush, from DAY ONE (remember the first cabinet meeting) had not sought a reason to invade Iraq. Keep telling yourselves this is Bush's fault, so you can sleep at night when his term is over.
