America Out of Iraq NOW

Bookmark and Share
I know some of the items below I’ve said before in my blog, but I feel the need to repeat them. Since lots of blogosphere browsing software tracks the hot topics of the day, I want to chime in as well. Right now, there's much discussion about what to do concerning the Iraq war. So add my tiny voice to the chorus: Bring the American troops home NOW.

I’ve never been convinced that a mistake left incomplete is worse than a mistake finished off. If America leaves, will Iraq plunge into chaos? What do you mean plunge? Seems like it’s already there. Anyway, sure, it will probably get worse, and for the people of Iraq, all I can say is I’m sorry you were born on top of the oil that the Bush-Cheney cartel will do anything for.

The holocaust-in-progress in Iraq is (and will forever be) the blood-soaked legacy of the Bush-Cheney criminal administration. I hope Iraqis (and Americans) forever remember them for what they are: greedy, murderous maniacs.

Now that the people have taken America back in a small way, let’s get our troops out. I’m not paying for the military’s salary so they can assist with Halliburton war-profiteering stock. I’m paying them to protect me on American soil. So get back here and help rebuild New Orleans before rebuilding Baghdad.

Why is the Bush-Cheney war cartel so against calling the Iraq Civil War an Iraq Civil War? I have no idea. Maybe because they realize they’re the ones who set it off. In 1994, someone asked a Clinton admin official, How many acts of genocide make a genocide? So I ask again: how many acts of civil war make a civil war?

What is the mission in Iraq anyway? I honestly couldn’t tell you. There are just too many questions about this war. Bring the troops home NOW.

I finally agree it may be time to leave, if this last push of ideas does not produce results. Some of the dumbest things I heard for staying are, 'we have to stay the course or it will send the terrorists the wrong message!'

How the heck do we know WHAT they will think, whatever we do? Isn't lack of understanding of the enemy what got us into this mess in the first place.

Military use should always be objective based, not based on machismo ( evidenced by classics such as 'bring em on!' and 'cut and run'), and not based on trying to 'nudge' the emotions of our enemies.
