Comments on: 5 Years On: Is Iraq War Only Half-Over?

3,988 Dead, More Than 60,000 Wounded, A Projected Cost Of $2 Trillion — What Is America's Continued Role?

[gkc99]

""Can Iraq actually hold this together as we disappear?" a skeptical retired Gen. Barry McCaffrey asked last week"

As long as the Neocon-scum control the U.S. government, there will be permanent war. If not Iraq, then Iran or someplace else. Because the Neocons get their power from war, their supporters make lots of money from war, and only war lets them suppress civil liberties and freedom at home and abroad. And cash for politically connected war profiteers, whatever the cost to the peasants, is what the people who control George Bushit like Howdy Doody are all about.

This has been the plan all along--permanent occupation of Iraq, permanent war in the Middle East, and permanent oppression at home with phony appointed president per curiam and oath-breaking government officers destroying the Bill of Rights.

Get ready for a LONG war!

Sir IF you have something to justify what has been or is being done in this situation PLEASE say it because I can assure you those troops who are dying are REAL and the TRILLIONS of dollars we''re spending of our kids future is REAL. Maybe to you sneaking in a country WE were told we were freeing is "Winning", but to a tired old Vietnam Vet it''s just plain LOSING!

Borrowing that money from China And Saudi Arabia is a very real threat to our national security.

Dee-YAMMM, it is about time the press began to ask this question, and in light of the fact that we were lied to in the first place, the question still unasked by the press is when are we going to hold the guilty parties personally responsible?

Death, destruction, theft, kidnapping, torture, and treason. All as a result of lies by the current administration, and for no other real reason. The media was very effective in helping stir up the war fever against a non-existent enemy, now it is time the press atone for it''s part in this holocaust by helping expose those most directly responsible.

Remember why we went there in the first place...all lies... We don''t like you. we are going to bomb your country and kill your leader. Also Remember: wounded doesn''t just mean took a bullet and now OK, it means things like no legs.

America''s "role" is to get the h.e.l.l out, bring home ALL the men and women and "contractors" over there and end it. They are all bent on destroying everyone and everything around them like they have for thousands of years. Why do we have to witness it? It is shameful, the loss of American lives over there. For what? These men and women in the military believe they are dying for something and they aren''t unless you call a lie something. I do not for one minute diminish the incredible loss the families of those who have lost a loved one are feeling. They died doing their duty and with honor and dignity. However, the American public has LONG been fed up with this farce and the government (Bush) keeps saying we need to be there. Shame on them all.

Anyone who is fool enough to continue to fight a War that was based on NOTHING but pure LIES is a fool but one that would try to do so in THIS nation is outright insane. This nation is divided as never before and our people are in deep trouble here at home. Our roads are falling appart and our bridges are falling down. Somebody has got to get in power who can and will move us forward. We have removed the Dictator in Iraq, it''s up to those people to live as free people or live under a Religious Dictator. Staying there with our military trying to Force Feed them Democracy, especially when we lack in here, is beyond being a fool.
