re: But if we leave right now, then I guarantee you Iraq will be an Islamic state ruled by terrorists like Zarqawi. Then they will have the resources of a sovereign nation. Can you imagine a terrorist country with access to billions of dollars in resources?

Highly unlikely... but the longer we stay, the more anti-American the country will become when it finally works out it's own government. What's our mission now, to kill or put in prison everyone that doesn't want a US style democracy? Political cleansing? The situation will only get worse and worse unless we turn into real monsters.

When we exit, whenever we exit, the most likely scenario is civil war that may or may not spread to other countries in the ME. Might as well get it over with.
