Comments on: U.S. Warns Iraq To Accept Security Deal

White House Predicts "Real Consequences" If Iraqis Reject Troop Agreement

[standlee5]

I simply can''t imagine Obama being commander in chief of the largest military in the world. Has he even been a cub scout.

[frankson2]

I DON''T UNDERSTAND IT....IT TAKES A UNITED STATES CITIZEN NINE WEEKS TO BE TURNED INTO A SOLDIER. WHAT THE HECK TAKES THE IRAQI YEARS AND YEARS, AND , ACCORDING TO BUSH, IT TAKES YEARS AND YEARS FOR THEIR ARMY TO STAND ON ITS OWN FEET. WHY DO I FEEL THIS GOES TO THE MILITARY-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX, I.E. PROFIT!

"One of the great things about this country is that everyone gets to make a mistake.. exactly what you Obama supporters are doing."....This time, with the help of a majority of Independents and about 20% of the Republicans, the Democrats will AVOID continuing the Bush disaster by blocking McCain from office. It isn''t the prettiest scenario, but the only hope of digging ourselves out of the absolute calamity George Bush has brought down on this country.

Bush said if they don''t accept the deal we will have NO legal basis to be there. What legal basis did we have to be there to start with.

[weawaken]

Seems like people have completely forgotten why we went to Iraq. And that those reasons turns out to be false. This is illegal. And American citizens are so dumbed down that they think Sadaam Hussein helped mastermind 9-11 or something. People need to be held accountable for this as it has been a catalyst for our undoing.

You know what i changed my mind about Obama! I think he will be better for national security and the economy!

Besides I think Sarah Palin is really a Nazi!

Breaking news:
www.chilitoz.com
Thousands of pictures of NAZI SS Officers and Adolf Hitler found property owned by Sarah and Todd Palin. Also an apparent Altar dedicated to the notorious Angel of death Dr. Joseph Mengele along with thousands of NAZi era coins.

The democratic leaders of Iraq want more money. Yes America, we are paying them billions. They think once we have a regime change the gravy train will halt. Give them a big handful of money and they will sign.

There is an intelligent educated class in Iraq. Unfortunately, they are no match for the jihadist thugs. Odds are against Maliki''s government''s survival. Maliki knows this. He is not stupid. He will sign the paper.

[riddelup]

Someone tell me if I am wrong. The U.S. invaded Iraq and defeated their military and deposed the ruthless dictator Saddam.We did not leave Iraq because we believed bad people would take over and the country would revert to it''s prior state. The decision to occupy Iraq was for the good of Iraq and the people of Iraq.Now the people we state are the right people are firmly in charge and are asking us to leave. If we refuse to leave now it is evident we are there for the oil goaded on by an oil infrastructure as well as the very profitable military industry. Behind the scene is the bloated lobby industry growing fat by controlling congress and bending the will of congress to their own.

WHO RUNS THE DAM SHOW ANYWAY

[olderwiser3]

We won this war several years ago. We forced Saddam from power. We hunted him down. We convinced his own people to try him and then lynch him. That is a pretty thorough victory.
The follow-on attempt to either dictate the Iraqi form of government, get control of their oil, or to establish some sort of ''permanent'' military presence in the Middle East is a failure. There is no prospect of anything like a victory in these goals.
It would be somewhat amusing to have the Iraqi''s refuse to sign an agreement and by their sovernty force W to abandon his own war before the new president takes office.

[jatchko]

I''m ashamed of my country. We attacked Iraq on a lie. We are no better than the Nazis. I will never believe anything the U.S. tells me. A CIA agent''s life was ruined. My life will never be the same, nor will my friends life whose son is in Iraq right now. I''m 45 life is not better after these 8 years. Life will not get worse; Remember Pakistan has the BOMB and the Number 1 Terrorist. As long as BUSH does buisness with his family Everything is OK in the USA

[frankie2fing]

WE LOST THIS SO-CALLED WAR, STAYING THERE AND PRETENDING WE ARE POLICE MEN WILL NOT MAKE US INTO WINNERS.

Wow, you are way off base. This ''liberation'' was never winnable, this was all about message and payback. Dubya wanted to get Hussien (not Barack Hussien Obama, but the actual BAD GUY) back for the the attempt on his daddys life. You know, the Texass Way: you piiss in my coffee, I will piiss in yours. Never mind that you both are drinking piiss. The message being sent was from cyborg Cheney and Dumbsfield, who in 1992 memoed that peace in the Mid-East was through a series of regional wars, replacing each regime with ''friendly'' regimes in a sort of domino effect. All they needed to have to start the dominos was a ''New Pearl Harbor.'' Problem was, the real enemy was Bin Laden, son of one of dubyas benifactors and friend of daddy. Al Queda won. They won on 9-11 when dubya did not react fast enough, sort of like a deer in headlights, and they won after the fact: dubya invades a soveriegn nation, making the terrorists job easier to recruit new member and dubya takes away our freedoms. And that is the victory that Bin Laden always wanted: To change our lives. It was easy for him, he had a good partner.

You''re maybe counting on Joe the Plumber? How''s that working out for you?

"There will be no legal basis for us to continue operating there without that," White House press secretary Dana Perino said
----
That isn''t precisely true, Dana. Taking a page from the Clinton Book of Is-Law, the United States is entitled to "do what it does because it can." See case law for Lewinsky inre Clinton. Maliki should really watch the old newsreels to see what happens when the United States militarily abandons a country. I''d suggest those centering on Vietnam and Somalia for starters. Perhaps then, the Iraqis will "...fully appreciate the seriousness of the situation." In the final analysis, it is their country, their government and their future at stake. If they choose to burn it there, it''s their business.

Or Mr. Obama will use diplomacy to resolve it.

"Invading Iraq without U.N. support was the wrong thing to do."
Invading Afghanistan [without U.N. support] will be the right thing to do.

20/20 hindsight is easy to market to people that only look backward.

President Bush has to be the dumbest president in history. These people "WANT" us out including the Iraqi government.

Get our soldiers out now!

[emelder]

Bushed again ... one more mess for Barack to clean up! The next President will have to be intelligent, build world-wide coalitions, and have the stamina to stay with a well-conceived vision for this country ... Barack can do that, McCain cannot. Our choice is clear this time, people. Go Obama/Biden ... let''s get out the vote, make this a mandate for change ... and make it impossible for the Republicans to steal this one in the courts (their lawsuits have already begun over voter registration issues).

Saddam was a Baath Party Member and Baath Party Leader

The rise of German fascism played a role. Many in the Arab world saw
Hitler as an ally. In 1941,

An Arab nationalist by the name of Rashid Ali al-Kailani organised
an army coup against the pro-British Iraqi monarchy and requested
help from Nazi Germany.

In Damascus, then a Vichy French colony, the Baath Party
founders immediately organised public demonstrations in
support of Rashid Ali.

After the Second World War, the Baathists emerged as the
leadership of Arab nationalism

The new Iraqi strongman was Abdel Karim Qassim.
As a counterweight to the Baath,

Qassim allied with the Iraqi Communist Party
(the strongest in the Middle East).

On 8 February, 1963, the Baath Party staged a bloody coup
against Qassim, killing thousands of communists.

Many believe that the CIA was involved in the coup as a way of
destroying communist influence in the region.
