The Cost of a War

[Snakessword]

I wish people would learn that if we pull out of Iraq, the place would just go to hell again and everything that we worked for would be a whisle in the wind. The Iraqies would regroup plan more attacks and the world would be even worse that it is now.

You have no information to back your statements. You`re believing what Bush and company have told you. And what was that? " There are weapons of mass destruction in that there country, and those al quaeda guys are hiding there." Both those claims were the reasons for " liberating the Iraqis". Both those claims were false. If you want to help the Iraqis, then get out!

[TPAUSA]

Do yourself a favor and read up "PNAC 101". Just search on google. Believe me BushCo gives a rat ass about all "we worked for" in Iraq. The main thing here is that their main Iraqi plan failed miserably. They don't care about US at all, much less about the Iraqi Civilian Population. These people are Criminals and the sad part is they will walk free..

Americans do not give up on their own and they never give up on the ones they promised to help.

Take your liberal trash and shove it up your ass. We don't buy bullshit here.

tompollock89, while you sit in your cubicle, the rest of us are fighting for change. And we're making it, with no thanks to you.

[WildBluebonnet]

We have Texans there, we're not leaving until the job is done. When democracy is the norm for Iraq, then we will leave.

Shame on you for posting these emotional grab packs when we need strong people.

It's OK, we'll make it without you. That's a promise. ;)

[grazon]

What a load of corny, poorly thought out sound bites.

[tompollock89]

the unofficial death toll in Iraq for civilians is more than two million

while the official is scratching the one million mark

[contain1359]

The fact is we shouldn't have invaded iraq. There was continued falsified information concerning the weapons supposedly there.Many agencies and specialist said there were no weapons of mass destruction.Guess what,I found the weapons of mass deception. You do not have to look far. I hear they operate in a large white house.We the people need to clean out OUR house. Because the tennants are not doing there job. Shame on us for allowing our country to fall into hands of the corrupt.Wake up America!

irak is a bad place bush is right

[h2oB4bed]

im sick of hearing people of the war saying "WE" lets identify who s war this really is.

[deadcustodian]

There are no winners in war jerk.

[fazoolius]

"What does it cost to end a war?"

I wonder if Mr. Eric Massa could tell us how you end a war? In war, you either end it by winning it or by losing it. What is his proposal for winning it?

Somehow, I think he would rather end the war by losing it. Mr. Massa is exactly the kind of candidate that we want...one who wants to retreat when the going gets tough.

Thank you for your service to our country Mr Massa, I urge you to support an effort for victory and not retreat.

Ever heard of cutting your loses?

America has been tricked into stupid wars in the past and didn't fall apart as the result of getting our troops out of harms way.

Or would you rather they stay in Iraq for the next 100 years where they can be killed with ease?

We are no longer facing a hostile army in Iraq but a hostile people.

[TPAUSA]

We left Vietnam. We should get the hell out of Iraq. Now! There's no Military Solution in Iraqnam. I know it hurts your "pride" but, it's time to cut our losses and get out.

[grazon]

All we have to do is state that if we loose 10more men in the next 10 days we're leaving Iraq.

If we don't lose the men that's Good.

And if we do guess the Iraqi Gov. should have given a damn about our servicemen's well being.

[not2worried]

But, some say if it wasn't for our media, we would have won that war. They were ready to give up till they heard our media talk about how bad it was.... This is different, not saying we should stay. But be careful not to tie them to close together.

[not2worried]

This is about the Vietnam comment.

[TPAUSA]

It's always the "some say meme". bush loves to repeat that. The problem is that most Americans want out of Iraqnam. It's common sense. This is bush's War, PNAC's Project. It failed! It won't work. There's NO Military Solution. The US and the World are sick and tired of the NEOCON's wet dream.

[joba606]

Great response. Thank you.

What's happening in Iraq is not a war. It's an illegal occupation, preceded by the illegal invasion of a country that posed no threat to us whatsoever. Occupations are not won or lost. They are ended. George invited terrorists with his invasion, and some showed up, but the overwhelming majority of fighters are Iraqi citizens who see themselves as defending their country, the same as we would if it happened here. Our presence feeds the violence. There is NO chance for stability until we leave.
