No. We need to pull the troops out, not put more in.

We need to pull out of erak then NUKE THOSE MILITANT S.O.Bs

Then erak will be invaded by i-ran and deeria,everyone wins!! !

Yes i made up erak,i-ran and deeria cuz i'm bored

I think the answer is to build a wall/sea of landmines around the boarders of Iraq to its neighboring countries. the only reason why the enemy is able to keep getting more troops and support is because of the aid and troops they are getting from other countries. Cut off that supply and you'll eventually limit them to very rare random acts of terrorism. We call them "insurgents" for a reason, that being that a large portion if not most of them don't come from Iraq but from neighboring countries. If we cut off or limit insurgents access to Iraq eventually we'll weed out the terrorist in Iraq, theres got to be only so many people willing to give their lives for their cause, and that number will limit drastically as the boarders are tightened.


The vast majority of deaths in Iraq are due to IED's, explosives either beside or on roads. They are made out of various things, have varying trigger mechanisms (timed, remote controlled, sensitive to tampering etc...). This will go on for quite a long time and the more troops we send only create more targets. We need to find a way to win the trust of the Iraqi people and help them understand that we are there to help them. If we can do that then eventually the people themselves will rise up against the terrorist and stop aiding/assisting them. I am not saying that all Iraqi's support them but I am saying that a large portion of their population does not have a positive opinion about us being in Iraq.

^^^This is why we need to blanket Iraq in pro-US propaganda.

We especially need to get religious leaders who'll preach in favor of the US.

AND we need to get some of the really high ranking clerics preaching in favor of the US, either through bribes or through threats.

And don't forget assassinating those who won't go along with it. Hire the Mossad, they're good at assassinations.

We have to withdraw eventually.

Right now at least, there's enough democrats NOT in favor of immediate withdrawl or a timetable, that I'm not too worried about it. What bothers me is that the Democrats have a huge opportunity, one that I think could do this country and Iraq worlds of good, to make some changes. But while some, especially the younger ones and most of the ones that just got elected, are in that camp, others, headed by Pelosi, are more interested in kicking Bush in the nuts (figuratively) than in being constructive.

I know, they have an ego to uphold
