<<<Re: "If people don't "feel" good about supporting it they won't. I get the feeling that we're relying on another WTC, a full blown Shiia uprising, or an attack from Iran, to justify continuing.">>>
Be careful what you wish for here. I understand one country just intercepted three truckloads of explosives manned by terrorists.
<<<It's not about "justifying" continuing, it's about being able to continue at all. The problem in Iraq is not a propaganda problem, most American support the President on this just like they supported Kennedy, LBJ, and Nixon. Just as with Vietnam, the problem is not a US hearts and minds problem, the problem is that in Iraq, we are militarily, politically and economically getting our asses kicked.>>>
Naaaaah. thats not the problem. We got our butts kicked economically about as bad as ever possible on 9-11-01. We have removed Saddams filthy hands from roughly $20 trillion worth of oil reserves and will put it back in control of of Irqis their benefit and the benefit of all oil-consuming Nations. We wont get our butts kicked in Iraq until Al Sadr brings out his tanks , missiles, and airforces and from wherever he is hiding them.
