If you look around and think everyone else is an *******, you're the *******. -
The future oil pipes going through it.
But Afganistan was mentioned as an example of Bush's tendency to run when the going gets tough. That's a reason Euros don't think he's hard enough for Iraq either.Comment

Color me suprised.
Why would Shrub possibly implement democracy in Iraq when it's in his interests to keep the state dictatorial?"Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way. "

Bull**** Paiktis.
US is there to rebuild.
Iraq had the highest standard of living and was the most advanced state in the Mideast until dumbass Saddam went after Iran, and then Kuwait.We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. - Abraham LincolnComment

LOl @ Ted.
US is there to suck the place dry (who cares if 500.000 die for it).
In Afganistan is bye bye USA already as far as Euros see it.
Bush has proven he ain't hard enough.
But that thread's about the Kurds...Comment

And with much reservation and not being 100% sure I think the PKK bases are in Azerbaijan nowComment

Jeez.
And so, Americans should simply enter, remove Iraq, set up polling stations, and leave?
The economy and society of Iraq would self-destruct in a week.Poor silly humans. A temporarily stable pattern of matter and energy stumbles upon self-cognizance for a moment, and suddenly it thinks the whole universe was created for its benefit. -- mbelleroffComment

The Americans should not invade in the first place.
Iraq doesn't seem to be self destroying. Sadam can be removed by the people. Now that he deosn't have your support any more.
There are far more cruel regimes out there. Go remove them.
Start with Musharaf.Comment

The Kurds in Northern Iraq seem to be doing just fine without Americans (or Iraqis) telling them what to do. Their economy and society haven't self-destructed in the past decade."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before.

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator RubioComment

I just found it amusing that you trust info coming from the CIA as gospel, which is quite strange considering the CIA would be the organisation most likely to be involved in campaigns of misinformation.Originally posted by DinoDoc

That was just an excuse. The embassy was bombed deliberately.

Anyway, my guess is Bush is planning try to implement the Germany/Japan model on Iraq, go for total victory, then phase in democracy."I'm moving to the Left" - Lancer
