War helps the US econmoy grow. So I don't think it's gonna end too soon, maybe Iran next and then N. Korea?\n\nAnd the control of the major Oil producing areas, well they are important to the US, aren't they?\n\nWhat's a few patriotic American lives compared to the profits that corporate USA will earn by going to war?\n\nAnd those Asian wo,ps well are they human, you mean they have families and children and the like? so sad, but scr.ew em, let em die, USA comes first, I mean the money!\n\nst

I fought in one war where we cut & ran & we have been running ever since.  We ran from Somila, we ran from Saudia Arabia, now we are running from Iraq. When do we stop running?Do we stop only when all our troops are home. Then what do we do as the peace-nic want, never leave america just defend these shores?" GW may not have done everything right in this war but at least he tried to fight terrism. Clinton sure didnt. He told our enemies when we were going to bomb them. The bleeding  hearts want rights for people who are trying to kill us.. Gw has made mistakes the biggest is listening to those who have not been in combat & know how to fight. Why give our men & wemen a job that they are not allowed to do. I think what he has to work with he has done well

Find a wasp's nest and hit it with a stick.  If the wasps become angry, explain that you are bringing them freedom and hit the nest again with greater force and frequency.\n\nSound foolish?\n\nAny more then this country's policies in Iraq?\n\nThere is a valid (if twisted) point to the approach you suggest, however.  For most a human history, military campaigns were staggeringly successful compared to modern day ones.  Take the USSR if Afghanistan or the US in Viet Nam or Iraq:  These wars COULD be won as quickly and decisively as wars of old (the whole mid-east went from Christan to Muslim in two generations) but to do so requires the sort of tactics that were employed back then.  UTTER DECIMATION.  Barbarity on a scale that a world with Internet and TV doesn't allow for.\n\nThe Romans were in a very similar situation in Judea.  A gorilla war that couldn't be subdued through force without utterly destroying the territory.  So they did.  This is what would be required to bring the situation in Iraq under control but I'd like to think we wouldn't do that.\n\nBest to keep out of their country and let them kill each other.  They're going to anyhow...

Mmm it’s hard to accept this fact, but it's true. The worst of this situation is that is too late to stop this process, and there's nothing we can do. The key for the success in the US was the relation of respect that we had with God and humanity, but at this time the US only cares about wars. Sadly, we'll have to accept the idea that US will collapse sooner or later, and that's when we will realize that we are not alone in this world, because there's others countries and we have to learn how to live together. If Empires like Roman fell down, why the US Empire had to be this exception? This is the hard reality. I just can’t assure you how long will this process take, but it’s for sure that it’ll happen, someday, somehow.

Yes, we must burn her at the stake!!!!\nMy guess is that she ran out of answers for the day.

I knew it was going to be a mess before we went in there. The problem is politics. If we leave now it will strengthen the resolve of terrorists. It's psychological warfare, and unfortunately the weapons used are human lives. Its a no win situation. We have to find the lesser of two evils and run with it. I personally feel we have, but I feel we could be doing more to prepare the Iraqis to take care of their own.

I think we should do what that general suggests.  There has never been a war, in which a force that went and lived up to laws of morality, and the other side did not, and the first force, winning.  Sometimes, you just have to be cruel to win.  I think what this general says is a great idea (I know it sounds kind of sick)  Just kill the people that decide to ruin other's lives, I see no wrong in that.

We should but,  part of me thinks we should try to finish what we started.  But, how can we truly know what's going on if the media continues to feed us full of bull!\nGod BLess your brother and ALL the other soldiers out AROUND the world DOING THEIR JOB regardless of what we think,...They are just doing their job! GOD BLESS AMERICA! HOME OF THE BRAVE!

Could we defeat them? Yes we could. Do we currently have the balls to jump in a furball with them and stick it out to the win? No, we do not. Witness Iraq and all the mewling and whining even after it was carefully explained that it would be a long, expensive process.\n\nShould we? No. All we need do is show that we have the guts and determination to finish what we started in Iraq, they will back off.

I don't think we have reached the point of no return but I do think we are dangerously close to getting to that point.  I don't pretend to be a  political expert by any stretch, just an average person so I may be wrong, but it seems to me that we are way too anxious to go all over the world to fight battles for who ever cries for help while leaving our own borders wide open.  We have terrorism going on in our own country everyday with freaks like the guy who went into the Amish school and shot 10 little girls killing 5 of them.  I don't know what the average daily number of homicides is in this country but I know that in our state capitol, the number this year is staggering.  Drive by shootings, murder - suicide and random acts of violence are nothing but homeland terrorism.  That, coupled with the horridous influx of illegal immigrants has made this a scary place to live.  I think we need to stop trying to save the world and work on saving our nation.  I completely support our troops and the work they do every day all around the world and am actually the mother of a military person but I still think we need to use our military here at home to close our borders, protect us from incoming threats and concentrate on Homeland Security.  How can we save the world if we can't save ourselves?  (you said you wanted detailed answers! :)

It was dumb to start with, and it is even dumber now. Why not just get out of there and let them have their civil war, best man wins and they go on with their life. So do we. It is a money pit with no practical end.

Sadly, there is no easy way to do this. My only success in doing that was to storm Yahoo HQ with a crack team of three light infantry units. Once inside we needed to take something like nine hostages at gunpoint before we could even get a secretary to speak to us. Only after we had executed four of the older ones did we finally get a tech-support person to show his pimply face, but by then we had been stormed from the roof-tiles by their own internal SWAT division and as I write from deep within a holding cell in the Yahoo! building, I find that I'm not getting all the points I deserve on this system, and I can't get anything but a chat-bot to deal with the question. Mind-numbingingly-maddening this situation.

Rummy is the reason they have to buy their own armor.\nHe is the reason we are stuck in a directionless quagmire.\n\nThey better than anyone know just how leaderless we are.\nor just how crazy and unworkable their plans are.\n\nAdd... It's all moot now since Rummy quit this morning.\nInteresting timing don't cha think!

I'd delete this and change her name to Nancy before someone insults you.\nTo answer your question, every breath she takes is a threat to the USA.

we have an idiot in our white house that has no clue what he's doing. None of his "plan" is justifiable. Its a war for oil, not peace. A power hungry village idiot (Somewhere In Texas a Village is Missing It's Idiot, best bumper sticker i've seen about this cause) came up with the brilliant plan that we could dispose of WOMD in iraq. Which basically brings us to good and them to not. It was pointless from the point that we found no WOMD. Anyway, it proved to be damn near impossible so we turned it into a reformation mission. We tried to reform the government yadda yadda yadda. Well we went over there to find WOMD. We didnt. We found a guy in a hole. Big woo. So now there is absolutely no reason for us to be in iraq. We accomplished all the things bush set out in the beginning. Now its just ridiculous. We're over there fighting for some retarded cause that a texan oil junkie idiot decided we absolutely needed to work for. Jay Leno put it right when he said "We are now down to the final 4. I'm not talking about basketball, i'm talking about how many people still think george bush is doing a good job."

it appears we have another Hanoi Jane on our hands.or another Tokyo rose,don't kid your selves the American troops are in Iraq and they are doing the job they are supposed to do, so don't try spreading this kind of junk around it won't work as any one who has been in the military will know different, maybe some of these Lilli livered civilians will believe it but not many of them Will, at least not the real men, and this wussies Capt should be relieved of command if she made such a statement, and will be. war is not for the wussies unless it comes home then even the wussies will learn to fight or die,and if we don't win in Iraq then they will be here for us to fight on our own soil, our people know this so make up your mind do you want to fight them there or here one thing is for sure we will fight them,they have already attacked America several times will your kids or parents wife , girl Friend or you  be killed in the next attack?keep listening to these shit heads and you will get the opportunity to fight here,\nso call your congress man and demand that we let our men fight these monsters there on their own ground and kill their own people not ours,and to the hell with P.C. lets kick some butt ,
