Maybe, but the debate has been engaged. You are also overlooking
something. The neo-con plan to have Iraq as a permanent base for
further
aggressions, is looking more, and more, unlikely. So sorry, but
Syria and
Iran are not on today's agenda.

No it's not. The scope and size of any withdrawal has never been
announced by anyone holding the authority to decide such things.



I see in the news today that the Iraqi army is being accused of abuses
which are reminiscent of Saddam's regime. If this continues, it could
lead to a parallel conflict which your president was too stupid to
predict.

Any abuses by the current regime towards fellow Iraqis is irrelevant to
the ultimate plan of installing a US-friendly government that is willing
to allow US troops to establish bases around the perimeter of Iraq's
borders.

Huh? According to your president and his sitters, we already installed a
US-friendly government.


No kidding. The plan is halfway complete. And you guys say that we're
making no progress in Iraq. ;-)



That would make us even more unwelcome than before. The decision to
leave may not be a nice, neat one made in a conference room.

I don't think we'll ever leave.



Well, just make sure your children have no excuse to avoid being shot at.
You wanted this war. Put your money where your mouth is.

Troops stationed in fortified bases around the perimeter of Iraq would be
no more at risk than the Marines at Guantanamo...or the forces that were
stationed in Europe during the Cold War.

Oh....OK. You think this war's gonna cool off soon.
