So I hate Bush, but pulling out of Iraq seems like a bad idea. v.tellmewhyimwrong

I think a lot of the reason we don't have a clue what is going on, is that we don't trust the White House to tell us any more. There was a report on NPR where even some Republicans were having a hard time defending some of the information we've been getting recently regarding the efforts over there.

I heard that one. Where they said there were 200,000 Iraqi soldiers/policemen now "standing up", which was the same number they gave a year ago (when everyone knew it was a lie).

No, I wasn't saying that there was a link between Iraq and al Queda but it would have been a logical place for it to go if it was ran out of Afganistan.

I totally disagree. The US would have been a more logical place than Iraq. Now Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, or Syria? I think those would be logical places.

Exactly. Nation building takes years, and we really suck at it.

Just look at Japan, all those scat and eel videos are OUR fault
