Object: Two Ways to Get Our Troops OUT of Iraq - **NOW** !!
There are two ways to get our troops OUT of
Iraq - **NOW** !!
There's a good way and bad way.
First - the BAD way. That's the way it was done
this last week. 43 of them were killed. Thus, fully 43
of them *immediately* got out of Iraq. But the problem
with doing it that way is that it's rough on their families
and probably is rock bottom on the list of priorities that
most soldiers would have by way of methods of redeploy-
ment out of there. And too, it would take 'way too long.
At that rate -- around 5,000 per year -- it would take over
25 years to get them all out of Iraq. Warmonger-in-Thief
Bush is probably the *only* person who'd like to see us
being stuck there for that long.
Then there's the GOOD way: Congress immediately
and with the full force of law totally DE-FUNDS the war,
with the sole exception of the amount of money that it
would take to IMMEDIATELY get **all** of our troops
out of these, and back to America safely. That would
save countless of our soldiers' lives, and enable the
USA to regain some of the respect it lost worldwide
when the a-hole who stole the White House illegally
invaded another sovereign nation after LYING to every-
one in order to CON them into supporting his idiocy.
Some people disagree with the latter method. It
would be interesting to know how many of those same
people also are bone-dumb enough to be RRR Cult
lemmings.

Because you're a coward who runs away from the truth.

your ideology


What "ideology" is that?


Its the ideology of everything America does is wrong .

Which is, like almost everything else you write, a lie based upon
hatred and bigotry.

Not killing thousands of people without a
compelling reason? Not using religious bigotry to justify mass murder?


All I'm advocating is fighting against Muslim jihadists.

No, liar, you are advocating wars against any Muslim country that you
don't like.

Here is some
religious bigotry to justify murder: "Blew up 3 Israelis at a bakery.

How about the thousands of Palestinians killed by the Israelis?

Slashed the throat of a non-Muslim teenager in Thailand.

Look at crime statistics in the US to see rabid bigots like you
murdering Muslims and gays and anybody else that you don't like.
And that's not even counting the tens to hundreds of thousands of
innocent people dead because you want to wage wars.

You make statements about me
that you could not possibly know ... bigot, killer


You're obviously bigoted against Muslims and I never claimed that you
were a killer. Like most necons you resort to smearing peopel with
lies in order to justify your own corruption.


You are lying and you know it.

I know that you are a lying bigot.

I've said MUSLIM JIHADIST and you know it.

Kill first and then label "jihadist" afterward.

Its a waste of time responding with
arguments,


Especially since you don't have any.


Its not that I don't have any arguments,

Yes, it is.

Of course I'm not ... only a ideologically blind person would say something
that simple minded, Honest Ray.

We are not talking about the Israel/Palestine conflict ... follow the

I had not vote in giving the Prez the power to go to war Honest Ray.

It's an old tactic to attack a person's patriotism in order to justify
mass killing, war, and religious bigotry. And it's what you are doing.
"Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding
of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they
are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of
patriotism and exposing the country to danger. it works the same
in any country."
Hermann Goering

lol Don't stop there - we're all waiting in anticipation of your
brilliant plan.


I not a military expert, but obviously the US has forgot how to wage war
since WWII.

In WWII, the enemy was a nation, or nations. In 2006, the enemy is a
small, loose bunch of rattleheads, and we attacked a nation - and not even
the right one.
What I do think that needs to be done is for the politicians

to let our military wage the war ... let the military make the rules of
engagement, disarm the Iraqi militias, etc. When your military wins 99%
of the battles in Vietnam/Iraq, is the best military in the world, best
armed and equiped one has to wonder why we cannot win.

Win what? The Iraqi army is gone, Saddam is dead.
You either commit to win,

not just defend, or you never get involved. We could send 100,000 troops
but if they are just there to defend and not go on offense in the long run
you will lose ...

We are, of course, on the offense.
Don't get involved in a war if you don't have the stomach

for it. The Pentagon is full of Generals that could devise a strategy to
win this war, but I doubt they can devise a stategy with all the
restraints the politicians put on them.

Like what?

But its nations/states that harbor the 'loose bunch of rattleheads', they
shouldn't allow to have a safe haven to plan, rearm an attack ...
Lockerbie/PanAm/USS Cole/Marine Baracks in Baruit/Khobar
towers/Somalia/World Trade Center 1&11 ... all US interests ... This doesn't
include the attacks in the rest of the world Asia/Africa/Europe. If we/they
have chose Iraq, we should go on offense there ... seal the boarders and
engage ... not let armed militias have freedom to roam all over Iraq ...
thats a disaster ... let the military make the rules of engagement. What is
the right nation or place to engage the enemy? ... do you believe there is
an enemy? The US has been attacked for at least the last 25 years.

The Muslim jihadist are still around ... killing Saddam or Osama doesn't
mean the war is over. Do you believe the Muslim jihadist are defeated with
death of Saddam or Osama ... see what was just uncovered in London today?

You either commit to win,

not just defend, or you never get involved. We could send 100,000 troops
but if they are just there to defend and not go on offense in the long
run you will lose ...


We are, of course, on the offense.

We are reacting ... road side bombs ... kidnapping ... bombs set off in
populated areas ... militias running around the country armed? Thats not
offense, thats reacting to the enemy ... raising the US troop strenght
without going on offense just makes it a more target rich envirnment for the
Muslim jihadists.


Don't get involved in a war if you don't have the stomach

for it. The Pentagon is full of Generals that could devise a strategy to
win this war, but I doubt they can devise a stategy with all the
restraints the politicians put on them.


Like what?

I don't have an exact plan, I'm no military expert. We have plenty of
generals that can do that. I've just made obvious suggestions. They cannot
do it with the politicians making the rules ... that's the military experts
job ... I'm confident that they could do that. I'm not confident they can
do it with the restraints the politicians put on them ... Vietnam is a good
example of how to lose a war. It takes a special kind of incompetence to
win 99% of the battles and lose the war.

intelligence plus that of Great Britian and Russia all agreed that Saddam
had WMD's. What decision would you make, remembering that Congress agreed,
and gave him permission. But that is beside the point, Saddam violated the
agreement that ended the Gulf war. He constantly fired on aircraft in the
no fly zone. He played cat and mouse with the UN inspectors ... all
violations. What were we suppose to do ignore all those thing ... ignore
every instance of Saddam violation of the agreement? ... do you think that

agreement that ended the Gulf war?
It was the U.S. which

stopped the U.N. inspection, not Saddam. Bush wanted to get the war on
before the U.N. was finished.

12 years Mr Weatherwax we/UN played his cat and mouse game with the
inspectors ... all the while Saddam violating the agreement ... is there any
limit to your patience? You imply it was the US fault for not continuing
the talks ... if we could have just kept talking Saddam, he would have
submitted. I wish you trusted your own government as much as you trusted
Saddams.

Yes, Congress did accept the White House reports that Saddam had weapons

So I guess you imply the intelligence was known to be false ... Both Bush

in GB and I cannot remember the report in the US, I think it was the
Silverman or Silverstein with another person that cleared Bush. Its not the

You talk about Muslem countries, I talk about Muslim jihadists ... they know

last, at least 25 years of the history of violence against the US. ...
Germany never attacked the US before WWII began
.. ... was it in our interest to back the allies?

Our security was greater before we went into Iraq.

See above about the last 25 years.
The world sees the

United States as the agressor there because we are the agressor.

One doesn't let another country/countries decide what your security
interests should be. Do you think they should?
The

Moslem countries sees themselves as victims, and potential victims.

This may be true, but its also true that we are infidels and not worthy of
life.

Therefore the world and Moslem countries are preparing to defend
themselves against us.

Who are they defending themselves against in Sudan ... the US. In
Indonesia, the US? They want to destroy the West. You will not recognize
that.
How can we tell North Korea or Iran not to build nuclear

weapons when we are invading other countries?

I think they can see that the Muslim jihadist are at war with the US and the
West.

The United States is losing its position of leadership because our allies,
which we count upon, are withdrawing support. Saudi Arabia has been our
closest friend in the Middle East, but it has turned against our invasion

The security of the US is our 1st self interest. Look at whats going on in
Europe ... how secure is Europe against the Muslim jihadists.

Even after the end of World War II, much of the Middle East, including

You are trying to tie Saddam and Iraq up with "Muslim jihadists"
terrorists.

Saddam paid and its on record that he paid the families of suicide bombers.
.... thats not support for terrorists?

Unfortunately, there was no connection until after the invasion of Iraq.
We did not go in Iraq to fight "Muslim jihadists".

We went to war to fight against people who commit terrorist acts ... this
covers Muslim jihadists, or do you think it doesn't?

I agree, and never said otherwise. I said Muslim jihadist.
Irag never threatened

Israel until the Gulf war, and was not a threat to Israel at the time the
United States invaded Iraq.

Paying suicide bombers, at least for me, qualifies as supporting terrorism
against Israel.
Before Bush came into office we were close to

reaching a settlement with the Palestinians, but that went out the window
when we invaded Iraq.

We've been close since the establishment of the state of Israel ... we were
always close to working out an agreement for the UN inspectors to go back
into Iraq. ... always close but the US always screwed things up ... or was
it just Bush? Always our fault never theirs.

He also shared the intell with members of Congress (faulty intell).
Congress gives Bush permission based on this faulty intell. But like I say
Saddam had violated the agreement that ended the Gulf war. Why won't you
address that? What do we do when Saddam ignores the agreement ... Please
stop side stepping this and address it.

I don't know about Russia, but I know that Blair openly stated that his
discision to support the U.S. was based upon the intelligence reports he
received from the White House.

He was also being accused of 'sexing up' the Brit intell. Blair like Bush
were cleared by the two reports I referred to in previous posts. Address
this they were both found not trying to 'fix' intell favorable to any
view/opinion.


Now you explain to us: Is our intelligence agencies that is poor, or did
Bush deliberately mislead us?

Our intell was poor ... Bush was cleared by the report that investigated it,
as was Blair. Address that please.

I hope you are not still looking for weapons of mass destruction.

I'm not looking for anything. WMD's were not found, everyone know this now.

We didn't go on what Bush alone said. Congress looked at or was able to
look at the intelligence reports that Bush made his decision from. Our
intelligence plus that of Great Britian and Russia all agreed that
Saddam had WMD's. What decision would you make, remembering that
Congress agreed, and gave him permission.


I have to repeat myself because you refuse to recognize that the Centeral
Intelligence Agency falls under the White House. Congress was not
responsible for those reports. Bush was.


I've never denied that the CIA was under the White House and that the
intelligence was bad. Do you expect intelligence to be perfect ... even
when intell is perfect mistakes can be made. Put youself in any
Presidents shoes ... CIA tells you there are WMD's in Iraq ... its backed
up by intell from the Brits and Russians. Do you as President says its
all a bunch of bull? No, one would hope that he acts on what seems to be
true. He also shared the intell with members of Congress (faulty intell).
Congress gives Bush permission based on this faulty intell.

I would like to believe that it was all an intelligence ***** up. That would
explain the present situation. But I find that hard to reconcile with the
fact that we our intelligence of what is happening in the middle east has
otherwise proved quite reliable.
I don't know if any Russian intelligence backed up what Bush was saying, but
I do know that Blair denied Bush's statement that Bristish intelligence
reported that Saddam was buying weapons grade nuclear material. Blair's own
statement before the House of Commons was that he supported the United
States because of U.S. intelligence reports.

But like I say Saddam had violated the agreement that ended the Gulf war.
Why won't you address that? What do we do when Saddam ignores the

Because those supposed violations were not the reason we went into Iraq, nor
would they have been sufficient cause. As you said, "Congress gives Bush
permission based on this faulty intell."

Don't be naive. How could there have been an honest investigation? We had
a Republican president with a Republican congress, and neither wanted a
negative report. The President and the White House staff is able to refuse
questions on the grounds of "executive priveledge". The intelligence
agencies cover their tracks by claiming national security. Results: A half
hearted investigation with predictable results.

I hope you are not still looking for weapons of mass destruction.

You are welcome to believe what you wish, but intell screw ups happen.

I don't know if any Russian intelligence backed up what Bush was saying,
but I do know that Blair denied Bush's statement that Bristish
intelligence reported that Saddam was buying weapons grade nuclear
material. Blair's own statement before the House of Commons was that he
supported the United States because of U.S. intelligence reports.

Both were looked into, Bush by the Silberman-Robb report and Blair by the
Butler report ... neither Bush nor Blair were found to have manipulated
intell. I know the facts don't matter though ... Bush lied.

But like I say Saddam had violated the agreement that ended the Gulf war.
Why won't you address that? What do we do when Saddam ignores the
agreement ... Please stop side stepping this and address it.


Because those supposed violations were not the reason we went into Iraq,
nor would they have been sufficient cause.

This makes agreements worthless then, if they are not to be obeyed. You
accuse Bush of lying and pound him ... Saddam does not honor his agreement
and its not sufficient cause to go to war to make him live up to his
agreement? ... not sufficient cause even to recognize that he dishonored the
agreement he made? How long before you think Saddam should have had before
he should have been made to honor his agreement? Or even if he should honor
this agreement? He continued to fire at planes in the no fly zone putting
aviators at risk, but insufficient cause??? What in your mind would be
'cause' to force Saddam to honor his agreement?
As you said, "Congress gives Bush

permission based on this faulty intell."

Thats not lying. Are you implying that intell is perfect or should be
perfect?

I don't know about Russia, but I know that Blair openly stated that his
discision to support the U.S. was based upon the intelligence reports he
received from the White House.


He was also being accused of 'sexing up' the Brit intell. Blair like

had a Republican president with a Republican congress, and neither wanted

Don't know the make up of all the investigators but Silberman was a judge I
think. So your government is always lying to you?? And Blair, the Butler
report was a lie also? Wow a lot of conspiracies going on at one time.
The President and the White House staff is able to refuse

questions on the grounds of "executive priveledge". The intelligence
agencies cover their tracks by claiming national security. Results: A
half hearted investigation with predictable results.

All speculation, but thats all you have to go on so it must be the truth, a
Bush lying conspiracy.

I hope you are not still looking for weapons of mass destruction.
