sdb-small diameter bombs that are raining down on our enemies. I hope you're in Iraq, you might be lucky enough to see one-for the last time.

Naw feelfree1, I'm thinking the SDB stands for small diameter balls. Tiny balled guys usually are the ones who cheer-lead war from the sidelines. You know, like Bush and Cheney. They didn't have the balls to go to war when they're country needed them either. So just like their most ardent supporters they only flag wave as they send others off to die for their ego and because of their cowardly shame.

Make no mistake on this. If we leave Iraq, it is a monumental victory for radical Islam. Terrorism will rise 1000-fold because they will feel emboldened.

ROTFLMFAO!!!!! No one with a 3 digit IQ believes that (which explains why Bush seems to). We are NOT fighting terrorists in Iraq moron! We're in between two sides of a civil war. Al-Qaeda is a microscopic part of the problem in Iraq. The people killing our troops are Shiite and Sunni insurgents. Insurgents who see themselves as freedom fighters and we ARE the occupying army that both sides want to be free of and rightly so. We invaded a country that was no threat to us in a war of aggression (an international war crime), slaughtered tens, perhaps hundreds, of thousands of their civilians. No matter how you cut it, we are the ones that are wrong here. We are the invaders and occupiers. WE are the "bad guys" this time thanks to George W. Bush! WE are the enemy. THEY are the freedom fighters.

Rise 1,000-fold ? That sounds like drunken hyperbole rather than sober prediction.

We are not going to let you addle-headed fear-mongerers blackmail the U.S. into keeping 130,000 American troops in harm's way in Iraq for the next 50 to 100 years, losing thousands more men and women in vain, on the basis of hysterical fear-mongering that would embarrass Chicken Little.

We'll throw you all in prison for treason before that happens.

["You were warned about this inevitablility, prior to the illegal invasion of Iraq. You should have listened."]

Dude, terrorism was happening regardless-however the US decided that it wasn't going to take it lying down. Don't forget it was 9/11 that provoked this war. And GOD BLESS AMERICA for not cowering like the weak-*** Europeans are doing.

[Re: "So best to fight the terrorists where they are in Iraq." Why? Are you too much of a coward to defend yourself on your home turf?]

Hell no-if the war is brought to our turf, I'll be more than happy to jump in and defend my homeland. However, use some common sense-would you rather have war in your backyard, or in your enemy's backyard? DUH!

The civil war can't be blamed on the USA, who knew the muslims would start killing each other rather than embrace freedom and democracy, when the tryrannical rule of Saddam was removed. Well if they're going to act live savages, they get what they deserve.

Anyone who bothered to read even just a little bit of the history of Iraq would know. Anyone with an above 10the grade level education should have known. Unfortunately for us none of these people were in the White House or were members of the Project for the New American Century at the time that this incredibly ignorant idea was cooked up! It sure would have been nice if the clowns in charge of this debacle had taken a little time to learn SOMETHING, ANYTHING about Iraq before invading them! Many people, myself included, hated the very idea of this ignorant war since before it started. Unfortunately we were drowned out by flag waving morons singing "Onward Christian Soldiers" and promising revenge for 9-11, even though Iraq had nothing to do with that!

sdb,

Re: "The civil war can't be blamed on the USA"

"Under the "Salvador Option", Negroponte had assistance from his colleague from his days in Central America during the 1980s, retired Colonel James Steele. Steel, whose title in Baghdad was counselor for Iraqi security forces, supervised the selection and training of members of the Badr Organization and Mehdi Army, the two largest Shi'ite militias in Iraq, to target the leadership and support networks of a primarily Sunni resistance."

"Planned or not, these death squads promptly spiraled out of control to become the leading cause of death in Iraq. Intentional or not, the scores of tortured, mutilated bodies that turn up on the streets of Baghdad each day are generated by the death squads whose impetus was Negroponte. And it is this US-backed sectarian violence that largely led to the hell-disaster that Iraq is today."

That's a pile of ***********.

Why don't you go explain to the American taxpayers how their military and economic aid money to the Iraqi government has been so well spent over the last 3 years to get them ready, and how it's been such a great investment that now the Iraqi government is a house of cards ready to collapse with the first puff of wind as soon as the last American soldier leaves.

There's no reason the Iraqi government (short of a full scale Iranian invasion -- and Iran tried to fight Iraq very unsuccessfully in 1980-1988) no reason why the Iraqi government can't protect their own borders and tackle the insurgents when we leave.

We should give the Iraqi government a reasonable but fixed deadline, and if they still can't be ready then...

Then American troops there now are only postponing the inevitable.

"Violence is up 15% from pre-surge numbers and this month is shaping up to be even worse. If we never leave then the neocon nuts never have to admit that they lost this war when they allowed the country to spiral into CIVIL WAR." Posted by frankly6

Actually its down since the surge note:

[ 1,586 civilians were killed in Baghdad between the start of the offensive...That represents a sharp drop from the 2,871 civilians who died...during the two months that preceded the security crackdown.]

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070413/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iraq_ap_tally

Its also shifted from where the surge has taken place (Baghdad) to other areas-but again, this underscores the success of the surge where its implemented. So who's really the liar here? (rhetorical-obvious you are).

The civil war can't be blamed on the USA, who knew the muslims would start killing each other rather than embrace freedom and democracy, when the tryrannical rule of Saddam was removed. Well if they're going to act live savages, they get what they deserve.

sdb101,

Re: "Make no mistake on this. If we leave Iraq, it is a monumental victory for radical Islam. Terrorism will rise 1000-fold because they will feel emboldened."

You were warned about this inevitablility, prior to the illegal invasion of Iraq. You should have listened.

Re: "So best to fight the terrorists where they are in Iraq."

Why? Are you too much of a coward to defend yourself on your home turf?

Re: "Remember what we did to Japan, it can easily be arranged for the muslim world too."

Hmm. sdb...super-dumb-b^stard?

Re: "I should add to those who really aren't aware, Osama bin Ladin considers the war in Iraq the most important war of this century"

What do you know? Another self-styled spokesman for both Osama bin Laden AND the Bush cabal.

How predictable.
