Something to consider about Iraq...
Why hasn't the Bush Administration told all non-military members to flee Iraq? Of course we know the answer - it would be politically harmful to Bush, but think of it - Americans are being taken off the streets and beheaded. In any other foreign country, the State Department would be telling all Americans to leave immediately.

God, I hate politics.....

2. But but but -
I thought the whole point of sending troops to Iraq to die, was to make the world safe for Haliburton?

4. Money ...

An ordered departure would prevent the companies now profiting off Iraq from having so many employees there.
