I've always saif that we should never have gone into Iraq....that WMD and Terrorism weren't proven and it would be come another quagmire like Vietnam...I think we should get outa the place as quickly as we can save face...those people are never going to be a Democracy...the best we can hope for is that we don't get another Sadam...and the worst is another Afganistan/Somillia.... I think my record stands for itself...

I see those who are oposed to the US actions (in the Middle East it's more a case of damed if you do and damed if you don't) as cutting off their own noses to spite their face..... A course of action had to be taken to stabilize the region....now the French and Germans were selling arms to Ireck in spite of UN Resolutions...that really is a case of them providing Sodamn the gun and ammunition to hold to their own heads..as Europe gets more Ireck oil than the US...

The USA is going for the Geo Political throat.....and this goes far beyond just the oil companies....this involves the whole fabric of the world economy, the interests of big businees whether it's USA based or not has global reach....and thats what they are protecting to keep the oil out of the reach of islamic fundamentalism. You no more want to live without electricity than we do and oil is the lubrication of that global economy.

We got the feeling that the Arab regimes were are losing control of their own populations so we are stepping in. In the long run American influence will be a moderating influence in the region...perhaps bring them into at least the 20th century from the 14th century.

You boyz continue to say it's "OIL" or "WMD" ...you don't listen.

Duh..look...at...the...map! What countries surround Irak? Saudi, Syria and Iran...hmmmm. Doesn't it appear that Irak is right in the center? Hmmmm...What country is to the east of Iran?...Ahhh Afganistan...Where are US troops deployed again? Irak and Afganistan...oh on both sides of Iran...hmmmm. Do you think maybe that puts a little pressure on Iran?

The USA in Irak sends a very clear message to the Arab/muslim world...if you fk with the USA this is what will happen to you!

Khadifi Duck got the message.

Think GLOBALLY, Think Strategically. Think BIG PICTURE.


The boyz in the WH are now thinking about N Korea, and how they can solve their problem there. Look to 2005 after the election.

Also if your really sharp you shouldn't be distracted by whats going on in Irak....the Great Game (the flash point) is afoot in another place and the dice are being rolled, and there is scant coverage of it here in the states..lets see if any of you know where that is?

GUESSES ANYONE?

What happened tabby? Lost the faith? "always said that we should never have gone into Iraq"??
