Leadpig, you and all the other cut and run libs keep bringing up that we can't win but you don't say what we should do when we are attacked by these people.
How would you suggest fighting them? Since this is exactly the way the terrorists intend to fight wars.
The only way I would have done it differently would have been to carpet bomb Bagdad in the beginning.
On another note we didn't start the war with Iraq, they did when they invaded Kuwait. Since the CEASE FIRE, Saddam made repeated attacks on our air patrols flying over the no fly zones [which is an act of hostility] that was a violation of the cease fire. Why we waited so long to do something about it is questionable except that Bill "wheres the cigar" Clinton was in office when all that was happening.
Answer to question number one: (Read this in the original post)

My solution to Iraq, withdraw the troops after a deadline of say 6 months to a year, under the guise of "Look Iraq we kicked out Sadaam we've been here a long time we've darn near given 4,000 of our own children in the process now it's your turn to stand alone. We've been boobytrapped in your own country for quite a while now, that's it. If things start going to hell after that outside pressure from the United Nations would be best bet. Other than that get a new oil supply, or alternative fuels. Message to America "We are not our brothers keeper" unless it involves our own resources. Since President Bush can't figure this out i guess i'll have to.

"Kill the arnoldholes with the innocents, that's great. huh. News flash, everybody in Iraq is not a terrorist, you might have passed a terrorist working in Wal-Mart today, so where do we attack, where is the battle ground, which is exactly why the war won't work in the first point. To win an Army must be allowed to be unleashed with it's full power onto the enemy, not have to tip toe in a land where some are innocent and others are not. This happened in Vietnam when the white house wouldn't allow the military to hit certain targets because of the political correctness crap, a military should not have to worry about that. It didn't work there either did it?
Sadaam was a @#$@ no doubt, but he was also a poosy. Doe anyone remember him being interviewed by Dan Rather just before the war started? Sadaam was basically saying. " Please America don't kill us we don't want any problems, there's no need for this. Which tells me he didn't want Gulf War #2. If Sadaam acted up he could've been cruise missiled to death. Iraq is not terrorism attacking Iraq is not going to end terrorism.
Another thing i'd rather have Clinton "hiding cigars" than Bush killing troops.
