Re: Clinton CIA Director Urges Iraq Pullout
Dear anjjan,
In my book all ready a mess but abandoning the Iraqi civilians to insurgent* factions (I think) likens to a sacrafice.
What of the brave Iraqi men who as policemen risk their life everyday? And are targeted with “stink” bombs?
What about their families?
What about the Iraqi’s who are pleased that Saddam is jailed?
What about those Iraqi’s who step out to vote?
Do you think the so called “insurgents*” might target them for revenge if U.S. troops left tomorrow?
I don’t like the term insurgent because maybe…“All is Fair in Love and War.”
What I mean is…I think it’s fairplay to defend ones land.
But…the “insurgents” are said to target fellow Iraqi’s. They are killing own countrymen.
Supposedly there are warriors from other lands crossing the border to do battle as well. And they also target Iraqi police. Do you think majority of average iraqi’s would like to see those that have made a purpose to slaughter other Iraqi’s taking control of the country? What do you think would happen to Iraqi’s who support Saddam’s removal?
I’m not saying u.s. is in the right. I don’t think waging war on Iraq was the right thing to do. What I am saying is that u.s. waging the war is now moot point. It has all ready happend and there is no way to change that fact.
I do think U.S. owes average Iraqi people some kind of stability before exit it taken.
I don’t understand your comment “judging Iraqi’s.” Who do you feel is juding Iraqi’s? I tell you I do not. Thought never crossed my mind. My thoughts are of safety of the average Iraqi’s.
Agree absolutely huge mistake to encourage American values by force.
<~~ Not a right-winger.
Heart is moderately to lthe eft.
Cannot change past.
Iraqi interim government needs to create own constitution.
Secular or Islamic is decision for average Iraqi’s and nobody else.
