Now Bush is spending our tax dollars giving speeches that are FLAT LIES about how Iraq is the center of the War on Terrorism. What is taking place in Iraq is a conflict between the three major factions that have NEVER been able to live in peace. The ONLY reason the sectarian violence was not like this prior to our invasion is because Saddam did not allow it to get out of hand. The violence we see every day is not foreign terrorists but the hate among the factions that make up Iraq. We are in the middle of an internal conflict that was allowed to get out of hand when we deposed the central government and failed to apply the force levels needed to keep the lid on the attacks.
We can not stop this hate no matter how long we remain in Iraq. All we are doing is losing more American lives and injuries and spending about $6 Billion each week on a fight we CAN NOT WIN. The discord in Iraq that is creating the violence has existed for over a 100 years. When we leave, these factions will battle it out and the outcome can not be predicted with ant degree of certainty.
Since Sunday over 300 people have died due to the violence which is getting progressively worse despite the efforts of our brave military. Our military CAN NOT solve the CAUSE for the fighting in Iraq and this fighting has NOTHING to do with the elements that caused 9/11 or any of the other attacks thought the world. The violence in Iraq is an internal dispute that the United States has no business being involved with any longer.
Set a time line for withdrawal and let the Iraqi People settle what is an internal dispute!
