Whether going there was a mistake or not, we owe it to Iraq to remain until they have the systems in place to function as a free democracy. If we leave too soon, we simply risk that some leader will come to power and that a dictatorship will rise again.

It takes time. The US is pushing as fast as it possibly can to get Iraq's new army and police trained and in place. It cannot happen overnight, and the US is admittedly not as adept at this as the UN. Nevertheless, now that we are there, we must make sure the country is stable and free before we go. Patience, grasshoppers.

As for protests, let me know ahead of time the next time, so I can bring my bong to the party. [img]graemlins/bonghit.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/drunkass.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/cheers.gif[/img]
