sooner or later we need to leave and whenever we do, eventually the country is going to do its own thing. For all we know, five years from now they will elect another nut or another nut will forcefully take the country and nothing much will have changed. Thats pretty much what tends to happen in the Middle East. Sure, if we want to sink 50 Trillion into a 100 year occupation we might be able to help turn it into a reasonable country, maybe. However, in 20 years Oil may not be worth squat and we would abandon it anyway. There are too many factions that are going to fight for power once we leave, unless we keep paying them off to stand down. Eventually however, they will use that money to kill someone and we will be holding the receipt as in all the other wars that have been taking place in the Middle East over the years.
As far as I am concerned, can we just tell the soldiers to pick up there shit and leave now? Fuck the serge, it just cost us another 1,000 soldiers and another few billion. What a fucking waste of money and lives. No John McCain, you were wrong about the surge. It just prolonged the agony of a bunch of soldiers and cost us more fucking money. What a fucking waste and it probably wouldn't have had to happen if John McCain hadn't been pushing for it CONSTANTLY until Bush decided to use the idea so he could hand this quagmire off to the next president. Otherwise we would have followed the advise of the Iraq study group and done the time table a long time ago. Fuck YOU John McSame! You fuck up with your fucking disastrous serge!
