A blow to Iraq's "democracy"

What a bummer. These mercenaries will continue to murder anyone building a coalition from now til kingdom come. I think it's an impossible situation. We may be able to secure a few towns in Iraq, but the PNAC's "vision" of a democratic Middle East is a pipe dream.
For all the martyrs who will volunteer to "run" Iraq, there will be other martyrs who will kill them.
Iraq's a black hole.

Taking our soldiers from this country to secure the peace over there will be a constant drain on our economy and on the soldier's families. Soldiers are needed for our defense, not for a pipe dream of an administration who wants to "democratize" heathen nations.

I say we pull out anyway. Those 130,000 soldiers over there want to come home.
